[mythtv-users] mythtv frontend startup beautification

[Rob Verduijn]

Hello all,

After recently reinstalling my mythtv frontend and then tuning the startup
down to several seconds (<10 from 0 to mythdesktop)  there is still
something that bothers me.

all the screens flashing by while the system boots
* ugly ascii grub (because of the nvidia drivers there is no nice animation)
* ugly ascii bar filling up (again nvidia drivers to blame)
* lxde desktop popping up for a very short tim
* white screen hiding the lxde desktop
* black screen hiding the white screen
* mythtv screen building up.

does anybody know how to dump a splash screen over it (animated hourglass
or something like it ) to hide all that untill the frontend is ready for
action ?

Rob
