Hi, I've to questions: 1. When will the next upload for usplash happen? upstream is at 0.4, where debian is still at 0.3. 2. Are you, David, interested in maintaining (or co-maintaining) a usplash-theme package? If so, I would be happy to help out/sponsor/$whatever and to contribute a derivated theme for debian-live.

That's for Maks to answer, last thing I heard was that it is held up due to differences between how Ubuntu and Debian handle framebuffer modules (IIRC they're modular in Ubuntu and static in Debian...). I've never had problems with this since I use self-built kernels, but I understand it needs to be resolved for the Debian package. 2. Are you, David, interested in maintaining (or co-maintaining) a usplash-theme package? If so, I would be happy to help out/sponsor/$whatever and to contribute a derivated theme for debian-live. That'd be great. I'm not a DD so I can't upload the theme package myself, so it needs a maintainer, I'd just like to know that I'll be able to commit fixes to it :) I'd also like to know what Maks, as the usplash maintainer, thinks...Maks, would you like to take the usplash theme package or is it ok if Daniel maintains it? As for the status of the usplash-theme package itself, right now it still needs upstream to commit one tiny patch (which I expect they won't for two weeks or so since there's a new Ubuntu release just around the corner). Perhaps if upstream OK's the patch, it could be added prematurely to the Debian version of usplash. In addition, I also have some minor fixes made and some slight artwork updates, so the tarball I posted a link to is a bit outdated. I should really put it into a repository soonish. I'll let you know when I've done so, and then perhaps you could review it (especially the stuff in the debian/ dir since I haven't really messed around with Debian packaging that much)? As for debian-live customization, that should be really easy considering how the package works: right now it takes a SVG image which is scaled and used as background for the different resolutions, and it also uses a PNG image as a progressbar which is incrementally drawn to indicate progress (so right now the Debian text gradually appears as the boot progresses). Just plopping in a new SVG/PNG should be enough to change the looks (you may have to change the parameters in theme.h also). It should be easy to change the package so that it builds several themes using the same infrastructure (just some Makefile magic). -- David Härdeman -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

If you're happy with that, I'm too :) As for debian-live customization, that should be really easy considering how the package works Thanks for the explenation, I though it would work someway like this. Maybe you can even create both themes yourself?
