Until now, splashy is only used for suspend to disk in openSUSE. There have not
been any efforts yet to make it work for usual boot. The script checks for the
resume binary and moves the splashy dependencies only to the initrd if it is
found because working userpace suspend/resume tools are needed.
The setup-splashy.sh script hardcodes some of the needed libraries for splashy
in current versions. This is optimized for i386 and x86_64 only. This is ugly,
yes, but there is no other way because libdirectfb pulls some libraries at
runtime which cannot be figured out with ldd.
Hope this clarifies a bit.
Maybe we'll use splashy for future openSUSE versions, but that's not decided
yet. I'm adding Michael Schroeder to CC, because he might know why bootsplash
is not enabled in PPC.
