Do you have CONSOLEFONT set (properly?) in /etc/rc.conf?

Yes, and it works... Tried removing it too but it still complains during the boot.

Could the error be because I have  "keymap" in the HOOKS in the mkinitcpio.conf ?

Re: THIS DOES NOT WORK - USplash Step by Step

Uhhh, that link to download the Arch theme appears to be broken, and it seems like the whole spookykid.net domain is no longer pointing to your website. Is there somewhere else I can download it? I would really like to see it.

Hi all, i've finished my theme for Arch you can download it from here www.spookykid.net/extra/usplash-theme-arch.so.tar.gz file size = 867 kbs
All standard resolutions are working (e.g. 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768) for a preview how it looks like go here www.spookykid.net/extra/archlinux.png file size = 416 kbs
Try it and tell me what you think of it.

change resolution.

The links isn't valid now, Where do I download them? I don't want to stay with ubuntu splash.

Another problem is that the splash appear for short time and disapear and all the messages shown as before.

That file isn't a package (it doesn't end in .pkg.tar.gz). You should uncompress it to see what it contains.

thanks.

What with the second problem?

The boot splash appear a little then disappear and the normal messages apeear as without usplash.

Will it be sometime in the formal arch repositories?

Re: THIS DOES NOT WORK - USplash Step by Step

I have strange problem: I can see the bootsplash, a little dark and blurred, but anyway, after that I get a terminal login screen, and by then I can hear the sound of the login to gnome (I set auto login on GDM to my user). it happens in the quiet mode and without the quiet mode. i also set "vga=791" and follow all the instructions.
by the way, I am using 17" screen, SiS 700 adapter, if its important.

Re: THIS DOES NOT WORK - USplash Step by Step

I know this is kind of late, but the usplash packages in the first post on this thread are no longer there. I tried searching around in ../~james without success.

How do I get these packages?
