Re: [announce 0/7] fbsplash - The Framebuffer Splash

Hi!

Thank you. We need some kind of basic console in the kernel. I'm not the 
biggest fan of eye candy. So moving the console to userspace for eye candy 
is a dumb idea.

Thats why moving the eye candy console into user space is such a good
idea. You don't have to run it 8) It also means that the console
development is accessible to all the crazy rasterman types.

Yep. The basic console we already have. Everyone who wants eye candy can switch
from basic console to user space console in early userspace.

Heh, I'm afraid it does not work like that. Anyone who wants eye-candy
simply applies broken patch to their kernel... unless their distribution applied one
already.

Situation where we have one working eye-candy patch would certainly
be an improvement.
