There is also an fbcondecor kernel patch, apparently maintained by someone else now. Splashutils have an extremely complex structure of daemons, control programs, and interaction with the kernel via UVESAFB =E2=80=94 I had to revisit this structure every time I had to change something wrt. splashutils integration. Not to claim that plymouth is the solution =E2=80=94 last time I tried it (= ~ 2 years ago) it was practically unusable with OpenRC. It took control of the console in some weird and buggy way, etc. I guess you could integrate it into a specific system with specific video driver, but I gave up on plymouth as a generic solution. Maybe it works well with systemd, but from what I gathered the last time, it is (or used to be) explicitly disabled on unsupported video cards by the relevant distros. --=20 Maxim Kammerer Libert=C3=A9 Linux: http://dee.su/liberte
