The problem could be that KDM holds the console/framebuffer until it has died/killed by init. Which would not allow splashy's libdirectfb to use the framebuffer.
Another problem might be at your /etc/rc6.d/K* scripts level. Make sure that /etc/rc6.d/S01splashy-init and /etc/rc6.d/K01splashy-init exist. To troubleshoot this better you might want to join us at #splashy on irc.freenode.net. -- ----)(----- Luis Mondesi System Administrator Kiskeyix.org "We think basically you watch television to turn your brain off, and you work on your computer when you want to turn your brain on" -- Steve Jobs in an interview for MacWorld Magazine 2004-Feb No .doc: http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/no-word-attachments.es.html
