Well, bootsplash jpg decoder is as it is (and I'm not going to fix it). It'll probably take some experimenting to get an image that does load. You might wish to try the 'convert' utility from the imagemagick package. If you don't mess with other JPG options (no special optimizations, etc), it'll probably work. You can also check fbsplash/splashutils/gensplash out (http://dev.gentoo.org/~spock/). It uses libjpeg/libpng to decode the images, so it should work with any valid image file. I have played with the convert utility and it scales the image retaining the aspect ratio of the picture, I have tried other option in covert to try to make a picture with my resolution but no good. I will check the gensplash patch maybe I am more luchy with them. |
