I don't honestly think that the probe code has any business doing that, unless we're trying to add a periodic-update hook to the whole boot process. Right now, the splash go-away poll happens during console text output, which is IMHO about the most sensible place to put it. I was planning on doing one rotation for every ~10 characters output, or perhaps one per newline. > Terry Lambert -- ]] Mike Smith, Software Engineer msmith@gsoft.com.au [[ ]] Genesis Software genesis@gsoft.com.au [[ ]] High-speed data acquisition and (GSM mobile) 0411-222-496 [[ ]] realtime instrument control.
