I have tried installing this package on two of my three machines and had no success with it. I have verified that I have frame buffer support compiled into the kernal and I have also even installed the patch that is listed in apt-get, but nothing seems to work. At one point I was able to get text size change during the boot up, but then machine locked up during the boot process.

So I was wondering if anyone had any tips if they got it working on their machines.

I've tried it, with a few different vga=parameters using the debian
bootsplash & bootsplash-themes packages and although it changes resolution
and loads the frambuffer at boot (verified via dmesg) it doesn't display
any splash image but boots normally as framebuffer-text.

Yea this is what I am seeing also. I tried downloading the patch to the kernel from bootshplash.de but the latest kernal patch they had was for 2.6.15 and I am running 2.6.18 and it wouldn't compile. I would love to get this working now, most just b/c I haven't figured it out than anything else. :) I haven't given up, but it has been put on the back burner....
