Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work):
Description:
I'm new in linux and are not experienced. I hope this works for everybody.
Usplash description and HOWTO customize:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplash
The combination of the original wallpaper, GDM Theme, Login Startup Splash and the Grub Usplash Splash Theme is excelent.

You have to install the (Package usplash).
The easiest way to manage usplash themes is to use (Package sum) "Start-Up Manager"
To do it manually without (sum) the "Start-Up Manager":
Extract Sleek_Dragon_Usplash_Splash-01.so.tar.gz
Open the terminal were this file has benn extracted. And Type:
"sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/lib/usplash/"
"sudo cp Sleek_Dragon_Usplash_Splash-01.so /usr/local/lib/usplash/Sleek_Dragon_Usplash_Splash-01.so"
"sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/lib/usplash/usplash-artwork.so usplash-artwork.so /usr/local/lib/usplash/Sleek_Dragon_Usplash_Splash-01.so" 55"
"sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so"
"sudo dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-$(uname -r)"
THATS ALL. Last changelog:

Hi I made an remaster of my sys and include your usplash I hope you will not mind, if so please let me know and I will remove this. It is just a remaster of Ubuntu for German. Here is the Link of screen shots http://mangkorn.blogspot.com/ I include a link to this page and explain that the usplash come from here. Best regards Andy
Is it perhaps possible to compile a .so file for AMD64 pc's? Both versions if it's no trouble, since i want to try out both themes. With these files I get an error saying no appropriate theme was found for 1024x768 etc. Installed it through SUM, worked for the fingerprint theme, the only one I found with an AMD64 .so file. Thanks in advance! PS: I have all the other Sleek Dragon stuff installed, it rocks :)
