I don't know about the branding people, but suspend-to-ram and radeonfb shouldn't be a problem for fbsplash :) > How many distros do use some variant of bootsplash?

As far as I know: SuSE uses bootsplash, Gentoo and PLD use fbsplash, RedHat uses rhgb (100% userspace solution, based on xvesa, doesn't provide graphical backgrounds on vt's - for that a kernel patch like bootsplash or fbsplash is necessary). I don't know about Debian - they probably have some (possibly unofficial) support for both bootsplash and fbsplash.
