    Nope, no themes - everything like that is still default the way it came. On the desktop Ive only added two contact shortcuts and the maemo weather app, plus there is still whatever was on it when it came (phone shortcut, email shortcut, ovi stuff).

    That's weird... I don't see anything wrong... :/

    Just as a test; Could You try to copy the /usr/share/hildon-welcome/media instead of linking?

    Maybe /opt isn't mounted when it's trying to show the video...?

    Code:
    rm /usr/share/hildon-welcome/media/maemo.avi
    cp /opt/maemo.avi /usr/share/hildon-welcome/media/maemo.avi

    Thanks DrWilken, I tired that and restarted but it's the same. However Im glad you couldnt see anything wrong in the previous post, it might be something else I need to look into not related to the new boot video.

    Your welcome

    Does the video play in Media Player if You try it manually?

    I noticed that the default.conf file is owned by user:root (user/group) and it's owned by root:root on my N900...

    Maybe it checks the ownership of the file when booting (run the commands as root - i.e. run gainroot before running the commands)...

    Try this:
    Code:
    chown root:root /etc/hildon-welcome.d/default.conf
    If that works You can try to move the file to /opt again and create the link once more...

    Code:
    mv /usr/share/hildon-welcome/media/maemo.avi /opt/
    cd /usr/share/hildon-welcome/media
    ln -s /opt/maemo.avi maemo.avi

    You have good eyes! Still no luck though Im going to take a look for updates, clear out sms messages, etc to see what happens. It's possible I only noticed it after rebooting to watch the new video but I guess the problem may be related to something else and I just hadn't spotted it. Thanks again for helping out
