[Splashy-users] Getting Splashy running

Hey,

Here's what I get from /proc/fb and /proc/cmdline:

$ cat /proc/fb
0 VESA VGA
1 VGA16 VGA

$ cat /proc/cmdline
auto BOOT_IMAGE=Linux ro root=803 splash

Any idea why Splashy isn't starting (see below for my original message)?

I let Aptitude do its work from the unstable repository and I added 'vga=791' and 'append="quiet splash"' to /etc/lilo.conf.  I'm still getting an error message at boot that says (with an orange *) that to enable splashy on a multiuser runlevel, I need to add splash to my kernel's command line.  Is there something I'm missing?
