Is there a forecast for this version?

Thanks again,

I already patched my 2.6.23 kernel. The problem is that (inside Makefile) you are using libtool for building files. Because I'm working with a cross-compiler, it fails building due to the following error. "libtool: unable to infer tagged configuration" I suppose this is beacuse host libtool isn't aware of my cross-compiler tool; I mean, it doesn't match any tag equivalent to the one it knows. Trying to use libtoolize (to use my own libtool script) it fails because no configure.ac is available into splash tree. Can you please give me a suggestion? Thanks a lot, Giuseppe Hi Michal,

Other than that, you probably don't need to worry about it. When you need to upgrade your kernel, you simply use the fbcondecor patch instead of fbsplash.

Do I need to patch my kernel with something? Using 1.3 version I did this, passing also informations to the kernel command line ("splash=silent,theme:..."). Can you help me? I'm a bit confused. Thanks, Giuseppe Hi Michal,

Yeah I only realised that when temporarily switching to the vanilla kernel. “Many people don’t realize that fbsplash is fully functional and usable without any kernel patches.”
