I use SuSE 9.1 with vanilla kernel 2.6.8 with no bootsplash. I applied the patch: bootsplash-3.1.3-2.6.0-test9.diff and then used kernel upgrade patch: patch-2.6.9 and recompiled to get this crap:

I WANT BOOTSPLASH TO WORK!
Calm down. No need to yell. a) Get the 2.6.8 kernel source .src.rpm from the update/9.2/rpm/src directory, and rip the bootsplash patch out (hope it applies cleanly). or b) Install the 2.6.8 kernel from the update/9.2/rpm/i586 (this is an option, but I warn you there might be a risk). or c) Locate the failing hunks your self, and apply the patch manually at those points. Usually there is not much difference. 1 wrong character can cause a hunk to fail. Cheers, Leen
