Package: splashy<br>Version: 0.3.2<br>Followup-For: Bug #410438<br><br>Hello,<br><br>I have a similar corruption with kdm. I see a blinking magenta underscore with black background when the X server/kdm is started.<br>This stays even after logging in to a KDE session. Switching to a terminal with ALT + F[1-4] and back to the X session removes the corruption.
<br>I have this problem on my laptop (ATI Mobility Radeon 9700 with radeon driver) and on desktop (ATI Radeon 9800SE with radeon or fglrx<br>driver).<br>When I cancel splashy during boot with ESC, the corruption does not occur.
<br><br>Regards,<br>Benjamin Eikel</blockquote><div><br><br>Are you using Splashy from initramfs?<br><br>Splashy should exit before X starts, be it started by kdm/gdm/xdm or any other method. Ensure that the progress steps are doing the right thing by reading the step file.
