1)
Use the latest version of eepe and use its built in function to replace your splash screen prior to burning.
You require fw rev 652 or higher to work.
You can import jpeg or bmp files. 128x64 is the perfect size.
Make sure they are B/w only. no levels of gray(grey)
If you use a jpg file, do not use any compression, the artifacting may cause undesirable splash screens
2)
Create a XBM bitmap file that is monochrome and 128x64 in size. (GIMP is a good program for handling XBM files).
Save your file as "s9xsplash.xbm" in the src folder.
Run "make s9xsplash.lbm" (this will convert the XBM file to the lbm format)
Run "make" with whatever options you need.
Once "make" finishes - the FW will be in the er9x.hex file in the src directory.
*** Don't forget , you need RUBY to compile your ilb file. ***
These instructions can be found on the er9x google pages.. project main page, on the bottom of the page, a long scroll down... I'm not a scroller, so I didn't see these until now...

That's it, HAPPY SPLASHING.
