Something possible would a text terminal emulator that execute login and

I have it working with 256 colors on i386/amd64, but
Yeah, wasn't it one of the main art-related objectives of Edgy to get
that crappy text out of the distro's usplash?

Seriously, focus the usplash with a higher resolution and color depth.

Viper550, the new usplash will be able to have more colors and a higher resolution if all goes well.In edgy we now are able to set 800*600 resolution yet.So theoretically the animated.gif should be possible !
I am really, really exited about that animated.gif !!Cheers2006/8/29, Viper550 [EMAIL

Viper550, I asked Seveas about the usplash.He was the one that informed me about the higher resolution, and he was going to make it use more colors.I'm not sure when, but he told me he was going to let us know ( mailing list ).
So we'll just have to wait for the good news :)Cheers2006/8/29,
That is cool :)
Only comment is that I would like to see a 'softer' version -
something without the hard white line but almost identical (I'm
thinking reflected gradient instead of white line...)
Is anyone else interested in the pretty virtual terminals, or is that just me?

That seems to defeat the purpose - the idea is to make the UI look
polished _everywhere_ and make the console less scary for new
