Tell me how you can tell to an user who come from Windows or for a
newbie Linux user to open a terminal (terminal ? sorry I don't
undertstand !) and type gconftool-2 ... ( where I should type
gconftool-2 ... ?)

Are you really serious ?

You want to customize the Desktop a little more ? Then write a capplet
who add missing configuration opttions like the splash screen
configuration.

If you do that, you should think, why this option aren't already included
by upstream in the control center ? Because users don't need to changes
this sort of options ?

Really ? You impose new users with the Debian splash screen, I don't
talk that freedom of choice.
