The sources are also on the Homepage, but nevertheless I added a link to the sources here. All but gfxboot service-menue should also be in english.
I don't know how to make dialogs with kdialog which depends on the language of the user. Maybe I could add a dialog at the beginning to choose a language, and then I will create different dialogs for each language. Is there a simpler way to do this??? |

Hi, I have programmed an other Version where you can choose your resolution it will also work for 1280x800 which is normaly not supported. You can choose if you want to stretch or to crop the Image. You can also see a preview of the boot-screen and you can define the exact position of the Text.
To make it work you have to install this first
sudo apt-get install gfxboot-theme-nld imagemagick
and then this deb package
http://pc-informatix.de/Artikel/Dateien/dan-servicemenu_0.0.6-1_amd64.deb
I hope that some people can test it. I testet it on my notebook with 1280x800 and an other computer with 1280x1024.
If this works everywhere without problems i will add the possibility to choose colors and transparancy of the Text. |

You are right, but I didn't complain about this. It was Kirilo who was not agree. I am fine with this situation. It was my first post on kde-look.org so didn't know that english is the preferred language here. I think that it is Ok to choose english and it makes sense. And I would be happy if this discussion about the used language could stop now. PLEASE :-) |

I found out that higher resolutions can also be acheived by gfxboot, such as 1280x800. It works very well on my notebook.
Is it a good idea to use the resolution that is indicated in the file /etc/usplash.conf or will this causes problems on some computers???
Maybe if I have the time I will integrate these higher resolutions to this servic-menue. |

As you probably know by now i am german, and in the description i wrote in german that you should read the instructions on my homepage. I suppose that you don't understand german so i will try to explain it in english. All service-menues should work on 64bit and 32 bit by installing the deb package except the boot-screen feature. To make it work you have to remove grub and install the correct grub-gfxboot version grub-gfxboot_0.97-40_i386.deb or grub-gfxboot_0.97-40_amd64.deb, you can find these packages on my homepage. Then you have to add this line to menu.lst
gfxmenu /boot/grub/message
after that and a
sudo grub-install /dev/sda
it should work.
I tested it on kubuntu 9.04 32 and 64 bit.
I hope that this will help you.
Sorry for my bad english, my french is better :-) |
