splashy quit working properly

[Chris <list.hurschler@gmx.de>]

Hi,

for a while splashy worked fine on my testing machine.  I had it working with 
initrd according to the directions in the README.  Then it started hanging 
shortly before the the xserver would start.  I purged the package and 
reinstalled it, to try to keep things simple and try to figure out what was 
going on I didn't try to use use it in the initrd.  It still doesn't work:

The bar stops shortly before completing, the etc-key does not show tty1 during 
boot, but a blank screen with a cursor in the upper left-hand corner.

Alt-F1 gives me a tty1 login prompt if I wait long enough.  Alt-F7 starts X, 
also If I wait long enough.

Does anyone know what might be causing the problem?

Thanks,

Chris
