Hi there, I used to have a splash screen at startup. Since upgrading from 4.0 to 4.1 it is no longer displayed, however a black screen is displayed in its place in the same time frame that the splash screen would normally appear. I made no changes to the kernel configuration (I still have "pseudo-device splash") or the /boot directory tree. I've also updated the source tree via cvsup and recompiled the userland / kernel a few times since just incase something was broken. Below is a bit of system configuration that may pertain to this. If anyone has any suggestions, please CC stab@obscurity.org or cjengland@look.ca as I am not currently subscribed to the list.
