There is a reason why splashy and splashy-themes both install fonts under /etc. The reason is that Splashy starts early at boot before /usr is mounted. We cannot use fonts from /usr (or any other file for that matter). /etc is the only location that is guarantied to exists during early boot.
Recall that Splashy starts at rcS.d/S01splashy or initramfs. Way too early for /usr to be mounted (on systems that keep /usr on a separate partition). Sorry, but we will have to live with this "bug". On 1/4/07, Marcus Better <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
