I always considered it to be the kernel's mascot. GNU was always the rest of the distro or else, like in the case of old SunOS, something essential to add during the post-install configuration. A splash screen for X with a Gnu theme would be nice for branding the distro and visually identifying versions of the distro. What are the meaning of the names deltah and metad? Those might be played on in making a Gnu image. /Lars _______________________________________________ gNewSense-dev mailing list gNewSense-dev@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnewsense-dev
