  Binary package hint: usplash
  
  I'm trying to use example usplash theme from /usr/share/doc/libusplash-
  dev/examples.
  
  But I got this error when trying to test the theme that was created.
  "usplash: can't get console font: Invalid argument"
  
  These are the steps I took and the result I got.
  I have installed ubuntu about 1 week ago and I am fairly sure that I am 
running the most current version.
+ Ubuntu 8.04 hardy

  Hi, I'm trying to make a custom usplash .so file of my own.
  I was hoping to use it to replace the ubuntu loading screen when the pc boots 
and shuts down.
  
  I went to this site for instructions.
  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto
  
  I went to the folder called
  /usr/share/doc/libusplash-dev/examples
  
  I used terminal to compile the .so file, using the makefile and make
  command.
  
  The .so that was created I copyed to
  /usr/lib/usplash
  
  I then opened startup manager selected the theme i had created.
  I closed startup manger and typed
  
  sudo update-initramfs -u
  
  After that was done I typed  sudo usplash
  
  Instead of seeing the example .so I had compiled, I saw a brief black
  bar.
  
  In terminal I received the output.
  
  "usplash: can't get console font: Invalid argument"
  
  Am I doing something wrong? I would greatly appreciate any help.
