Is it like usplash? Works only with vga modes? I have 1366x768, is the a way for my creen?

This is an awesome splash screen However, when I installed it on Ubuntu 9.04 it works but does verbose mode over the screen when it's just doing it normal. Also, when I do switch to verbose mode there is no picture. Any help?

this howto is only for silent mode. if you have got verbose image, you must patch your kernel (patch name: fbcondecor). font name is Tempus Sans, you've got right Piotrek
