Just to clarify ... Simply testing this condition:

causes Splashy to start late. That's why I created the "laptop" kernel 
argument.

When I tested my hack by not passing the "laptop" kernel argument, 
Splashy starts from "init-top" (like it is supposed to), but I can only 
start-up, shutdown and suspend. I cannot resume. The "laptop" kernel 
argument fixes the "resume bug," but it causes Splashy to start late on 
start-up.
