It took quite a while, but here's an initial version:

ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/stepan/bootsplash/kernel/bootsplash-3.1.1-2.6.0
-test9.diff

Feel free to report bugs, send fixes or comments,...

Regards,
Stefan

Applies and builds cleanly against -test9-mm1.

I can't seem to get the initrd image to come up.

Setting the image manually from the cli using the 'splash' utility works
however.

Building a VM to test the initrd stuff some more. It's easier to
continually reboot the VM than my box :)
