Hi can someone please help me? I have installed bootsplash in my Kanotix install. It was working fine until I upgraded the kernel. However after I installed the latest kernel (2.6.11-kanotix-10) It stopped working, and now refuses to work at all. This is despite the fact that that I have not altered any options in the kernel (bootsplash is set to yes, vesafb is set to M initial file system support is set to yes and virtual memory file system support set to yes). I have also ran dpkg-reconfigure bootsplash and selected my prefered bootsplash theme (indeed I have tried several) and I am also using identical options in my grub.conf file when bootsplash was last working. These are as follows:
Code:
title Linux Professional/Linux, kernel
root (hd0,5)
kernel /vmlinuz root=/dev/hda3 ro ramdisk_size=100000 lang=us apm=power-off selinux=0 nomce vga=791 splash=silent video=vesafb:nomtrr
boot
The relevant sections of dmesge regarding bootsplash show no problems:

Can anyone suggest any sane or sensible reason why, given the fact that everything is configured correctly to use bootsplash that bootsplash might have chosen now to stop working?
Any input would be appreciated.
