I believe you can turn off the nvidia logo splash screen from displaying at 
all.  Have you tried setting the following in the "Device" section of your 
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4 or /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
   Option  "NoLogo" "1"

The option has been in the nvidia drivers for a while now.  If it works, you 
should probably file a bug report with Mepis and they can add it by default to 
their X config.
