I hate one / partition and one /home partition and that is it.

Splashy 0.1-5 (downloaded from the splashy homepage) works flawlessly on my box, which has /usr on its own partition.
The fact that you see the 10%. 20% etc means that splashy is working, but that the picture is not displaying for some reason. I had a similar thing happen until I realised that I hadn't named my startup and shutdown picturse correctly in the splashy xml config file.
One other thing, splashy works just fine with png graphics.
Finally, thanks a lot for the howto!

I have mine set to 791. Try that.Originally Posted by bored2k
Here's my kernel line:
Code:kernel /vmlinuz root=/dev/hda9 ro vga=791 quiet splash

PS -> 0.1-5 is not the newest version. That 0.1.3 is. It's not 0.1.5, it's 0.1-5.0 as far as I understand. That is why you mixed the versions

Still doesn't work for me
HELP! Do you have that pid file in the directory?
I get the message that Splashy is not running and because of that, it cannot send any messages. I see that green text progress notifications but no graphics ((((
