You the gentoo devs are the greatest. :-) Another question, since I've got the ear of the Strategic Lead/QA Manager for the Gentoo Release Engineering team, did you guys notice that there is a bug in either the gentoo live-cd splash theme or in splash-utils? It seems that occasionally on boot, the silent splash locks up, no icons, no progress bar. I thought this was just a 2005.0 official live-cd problem, but I've noticed it on livecd's I've made as well as the new Dolphin beta. Any idea whats causing that problem?

7 Not a clue.

9 All of the splash stuff is done by a couple of the Gentoo devs. I can
10 say that most of the time, it is doing processing for the icons
11 starting, but determining which services will be started and in what
12 order. What if you switch to verbose mode, does it still lock up?

14 Anyway, that really has nothing to do with catalyst itself, just witht
15 he funky theme.

I'm trying to build a livecd to contain my own install stages, and I'd like it to be as close to the Gentoo livecd as possible. The problem is I can't install both ipw2100 and ipw2200 because the packages block eachother, any idea how the releng guys got around the block in building the livecd?
