   kv-6.1.12? I'll have to go grab it.   
      
   At the moment LFS has the boot but if I run into trouble I'll boot with   
   slackware.

   Yep, I am just working on some depenencies for the desktop. I'm going to have   
   a go at getting xorg and friends installed tonight. If I succeed I'll be   
   building an xfce desktop tomorrow.

   I don't see the penguins until the screen goes blank (kernel modesetting I   
   think) and then they show up after that. I never saw them until I added the   
   nouveau module.   
      
   I have the boot logo selected in ..   
      
   make menuconfig -> Device Drivers -> Graphics support   
      
   It's right at the bottom.
