I (almost) have it working right. I compiled a kernel with fbcondecor yesterday and set it up. It works and everything :D <br>
The only problem is that the only theme I can find for it is a gentoo one... and I can't find specifications of the images. I've attempted to make my own one, more or less simple, flat colours in gimp, but it doesn't work.<br>
I'll experiment some more, I'll get it working.<br>
Thanks again :)</p>

long time and it works very well. If I remember correctly, fbcondecor<br>
is the kernel patch and fbsplash is the userspace package. It is a lot<br>
cleaner than the kernel-heavy bootsplash implementations of the past.<br>
It has been quite closely tied to Gentoo in the past but it seems to<br>
have found its way onto other distros now. For Arch, you're in luck. :)<br>
