I would certainly be happy to have fbsplash included in the mainstream kernel. vesafb-tng is a little more problematic, since it's x86_32 only, and seems not to be working properly on some SMP systems. Since I don't currently have access to any SMP machines, it would be very nice if people who do so, and who have some interest in vesafb-tng, could send me reports about how the driver is working for them. Even a simple "it's working properly" note is helpful, as it helps me assess the situation. Thanks in advance :) Live long and prosper. -- Michal 'Spock' Januszewski Gentoo Linux Developer cell: +48504917690 http://dev.gentoo.org/~spock/ JID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] freenode: #gentoo-dev, #gentoo-pl
