ArchCK: gensplash issues and logout problems

Hi,
   i can't boot using gensplash anymore,my system is looking for a 640x480.cfg darch theme but it can't find it cause it doesn't exit.How can i tell my system to use the 1280x1024 one as it was used to when it was working?it seems that whatever i change it is not understood.

Second problem and possibly related is that when i logout from gnome X crash and everything stucks on my screen stupid graphical stuff comes out and have to hard reboot everytime,even without gdm running.

title           Arch-CK
root            (hd0,1)
kernel          /boot/vmlinuz26archck root=/dev/sda2 video=vesafb:ywrap,mtrr,1280x1024-32@60 splash=silent,theme:darch quiet console=tty1 ro 
initrd          /boot/initramfs-2.6.15-archck.img

mkinitramfs snippet:

# To use fbsplash/gensplash, you need to install gensplashutils and initscripts$
# Add a theme to enable fbsplash, Try 'darch', it's included in the gensplashut$
FBSPLASH_THEME=darch

# Resolution to use, 1024x768 will be used if left blank. Format is '1024x768'
FBSPLASH_RES=1280x1024

i also reinstalled kernel26archckand all the gensplashutils ,initramfs stuff.
