How to use the Linux Progress Patch (Splash Screen)?

["Timothy R. Butler" <tbutler@uninetsolutions.com>]

Hi everyone,
  Has anyone here tried the Linux Progress Patch on a recent 2.4.x-series 
kernel? I was thinking about getting a little eye candy for my boot messages, 
but I can't seem to find LPP for anything newer than Linux 2.4.2 (I'm runing 
2.4.17). I tried applying the old patch to the new kernel, but my attempt 
failed with several sections not being patched.

  Does anyone know of a way to get LPP to work on more recent kernels?

  Thanks,
       Tim
