Hello,

I searched the mailing list archive, but I couldn't find the answer I'm
looking for.

Here's what I would like to do, but I don't know how.  I am putting
together a mythtv box.  I've noticed that when ivtv-fb is loaded
random junk is put on the TV screen, whatever is left over in the
framebuffer.

Before X starts I would like to put a "pretty image" in the frame
buffer so I have something to look at while the machine boots and X
starts, etc.

Idealy I would like to do the following:

1. load ivtv-fb

2. immediately load a pretty image in the fb and "lock it in". don't
   let X modify the fb until later.

3. start X

4. auto login user mythtv

5. during the mythtv user .xsession "unlock" the fb and let X take over.


Is that possible?  Any help is appreciated.

Thanks to all the developers, doc writers, testers and maligned loved
ones for making ivtv work.  I am having a ball.

Cheers,
Curt

p.s. please CC me directly on any reply.
