With that in mind, I have a "bouncing logo" screen saver lkm (think daemon_saver_mod crossed with splashkit) I'd like to submit. However, I'd like to have the logo as a separate file rather than compile it into the lkm, but I haven't had much luck finding out how to do file I/O in kernel land. Could somebody give me a hint before i go berserk and read the entire kernel source to find out? :) -- * Finrod (INTJ) * Unix weenie * dag-erli@ifi.uio.no * cellular +47-92835919 * RFC1123: "Be liberal in what you accept, and conservative in what you send"
