Like I said before, update the packages fbsplash and fbsplash-extras to the latest versions, of course, run locate pacnew, adapt the config if necessary, run mkinitcpio for your kernel(s) as Yaro suggested and then reboot. If the issue still persists, please, file the bug report in the AUR comments of fbsplash-extras and maybe also fbsplash. The error messages you posted are related to a file which is contained in fbsplash-extras. Both packages, fbsplash as well as fbsplash-extras, have been updated a few days ago. So it's most likely that you missed these updates. At least I can't reproduce this issue. And keep in mind that both packages are built upon [core] and not [testing]. So if you're using [testing] it might be that it breaks anytime. Heiko

It's maintained in AUR. Please, send fbsplash related questions or bug reports to its AUR comments. But in this case it seems to be an issue with the AUR package fbsplash-extras which was recently updated. So, first make sure to having updated both packages fbsplash and fbsplash-extras to their latest versions. If the issue persists then, please, send a comment to the AUR page of fbsplash-extras and maybe fbsplash. Heiko
