2005-01-30
I've just spent a good part of the day on upgrading my website (as if I hadn't any more important things to do..). Enjoy :)
2005-01-29
As you might or might not have noticed, I have a blog now. Having the first 3 entries behind me, I'm feeling confident that I'll be able to continue writing more ;) However, please consider it experimental for now - before it gets published here it's synced around a few times on my workstation, so things may yet break (hopefully they won't..). Also, feel free to comment anything I write there by sending me an e-mail or contacting me on jabber/IRC.
2005-01-27
Added a new version of splashutils. Check the ChangeLog for a description of the hot new features ;)
2005-01-20

2004-12-29
I finally got some more free time and managed to spent it working on gensplash. This means that its to-do list has just been updated. The list got a little longer and the progress indicator advanced by some 5% or so. The progress increase should actually be bigger (more like 10-15%) but I just couldn't bother to add the stuff I've done to the to-do list and then immediately mark them as 'completed' ;) It will still be some time before any useable code is released, so don't get too excited yet ;) I realize this project is taking a lot longer than I anticipated. But then, I also have a lot less time than I thought I would have :) Since the year 2005 is coming, and since it will be high time to start some new projects, I'll try to speed up gensplash development a bit :)
2004-12-11
Added a new version of fbsplash (0.9.1). It fixes color corruption problems in DIRECTCOLOR modes and text scrolling issues in silent mode (introduced in fbsplash patch for 2.6.10-rc2).
2004-11-22
Added fbsplash and vesafb-tng for 2.6.10-rc2(-bk7). Switching from silent to verbose in fbsplash is kind of broken at this point. I don't have enough free time to track it down and fix it now. I'll deal with it ASAP, but it might take a few days.
2004-11-01
Added a new bugfix version of vesafb-tng for 2.6.10-rc1-bk11. If you have been experiencing problems with vesafb-tng on post-2.6.8.1 kernels, you should probably upgrade to this version.
2004-10-28

2004-10-10
Added a progress-bar and a TODO list to the gensplash project page. Both are automatically generated by etodo (part of gendevtools, to be published soon) and some XSLT magic. The TODO list for v0.1 is not complete yet, so don't be surprised if one day the progress indicator becomes shorter ;)
2004-10-03
Moved vesafb-tng project info to its own subpage.
