conf.d/bootsplash defines variable BOOTSPLASH_TTYS which is not used by init.d script. Small patch to fix (assuming my understanding of BOOTSPLASH_TTYS is correct): <snip> --- bootsplash~ 2003-08-20 19:16:48.000000000 +0200 +++ bootsplash 2003-08-20 19:17:27.000000000 +0200 @@ -29,7 +29,7 @@ RESOLUTION=$(/sbin/fbresolution) # switch to a usable image on all consoles - for TTY in `seq 0 5` + for TTY in "${BOOTSPLASH_TTYS}" do /sbin/splash -s -u $TTY /etc/bootsplash/${BOOTSPLASH_THEME}/config/bootsplash-${RESOLUTION}.cfg done </snip> What I do not understand is the explanation of BOOTSPLASH_TTYS in config: <snip> # The number of ttys (seperated by space) which should # get the splash (e.g. for tty 1-5: "0 1 2 3 4 5") # # If you want to have different splash images on the ttys # then you have to link the configuration file of that # image to your theme's config directory as # vtsplash-X-Y.cfg, where X is the tty number and Y the # resolution. # Assumed, your current theme is /etc/bootsplash/gentoo/ and # you want to have the splash image from /etc/bootsplash/Linux # on console 2 (at 800x600), then you have to link as follows: # # ln -s /etc/bootsplash/Linux/config/bootsplash-800x600.cfg \ # /etc/bootsplash/gentoo/config/vtsplash-1-800x600.cfg # BOOTSPLASH_TTYS="0 1 2 3 4 5" </snip> The thing about that symlink for different splashes on different consoles. Is this done by splash-utility or should that be checked by the init-script (which is not checked at the moment afai see)? Regards, Tobias
