How Do I Import This Usplash??? Arrrrrghhh...

[Baphomet]

I want to install this rather cool looking usplash from Gnome-Look called Ubuntu Wheel (tres chic, non?) but it's not your classic .so file, it's a whole folder full of files (source files??).

I found an *.so file inside the folder, once I extracted the .tar.gz, but importing that into the Startup Manager dorks things hard and I wind up having no upsplash AT ALL. If it matters I don't need widescreen, I'm 4:3 here at 1280x1024.

Come on Brainiacs... Help a dude out here?

I don't know bro, but I'm diving in after ya ... hold tight

EDIT: I installed it and I got nothing! It didn't screw up my upsplash by having nothing show up like it did yours, but Just the original upsplash is still there. I checked my different kernels also to check to see if it showed up on them and it didn't.

This guy must not have used TheeMahns upsplash maker

I'm getting closer than you guys...I just went into the folder and typed "make"...only problem is, I don't have all the programs it needs to install!

If possible, I'll see if I can make a .deb for you.

This might help:

(check the comments)

it's for the widescreen version, but it should apply to this one also.

Now THAT would rock. Thank you.

Note the "If possible"...this sucker just won't compile!
