29 Would you share your grub.conf line, the listing of files in the
30 /etc/splash/livecd-2005.1/images directory, and the text of
31 /etc/splash/livecd-2005.1/1280x1024.cfg, if it's not too much trouble?
32 Neither livecd theme (2005.0 or 2005.1) works for me (and they both fail
33 in exactly the same way), so I'd like to know why if possible (just
34 haven't had time to dedicate to investigating it). I'd much rather be
35 using that theme than emergence (even though emergence has a matching
36 GDM theme. I don't care. I don't like emergence very much :) ).
