Custom Bootsplash Theme

Message

I'm trying to get my custom bootsplash theme to work with my 2.6.4-ck1 kernel. I can get the default gentoo one to work fine but when I switch it over to my customized one I get this error:

Code: Select all

Mar 26 19:04:02 space-weasel kernel: bootsplash 3.1.3-2003/11/14: looking for picture.... found, but truncated!

The Bootsplash-HOWTO recommended that all bootsplash pictures have a resolution of 98x98. How do I check this using GIMP? What other things could be going wrong?

Thank!

I never had a problem with that. I saved pictures as a jpg with the default gimp settings and they worked.

to check the image size under gimp, go to Image at the top, and use the Scale Image option.

Woohoo! I got it fixed! Just had to go into gimp and then use the scale image menu to make sure the pixels/in is 96x96. A little tweaking on the theme and here you go!
