Hello,
I had trouble on halt/shutdown on my box for several days. I track it
done on splashy.
No enabling splashy with by ex. "ENABLE=0" in /etc/default/splashy is
fine.
When splashy is enable, the box won't shutdown anymore, it just stays
frozen in different state of graphic screen (got a blue screen
yesterday).
This freeze seems to happen earlier since my upgrade to the last debian
kernel.
I don't have any idea how to dig in this, but I'm willing to follow
instructions.

Hello Fabrice,
What happens at boot? Splashy works fine?
What happens when you run Splashy by hand: /sbin/splashy test
(Press ESC to exit)
Are you using vesafb? cat /proc/fb; cat /proc/cmdline
I don't know what else could cause this. You are not running Splashy
from initramfs right? cat /etc/default/splashy | grep INITRAMFS
If you are, please disable that as this is very experimental.
ENABLE_INITRAMFS=0 will disable it. Then you need to run:
update-initarmfs -u
Last, you can purge Splashy 0.1.8 and install the latest release,
Splashy 0.2.1. I uploaded packages to
http://splashy.alioth.debian.org/debian/incoming. I'm waiting for
Otavio to upload them to Sid (pending verification of course).
Please keep us posted.
