Glad to hear it!
As for changing the splash video, there is a thread on that, but I'm too tired to look it up. Search around, and you should find out how to do that. You will have to use the terminal to mess around with system files (you'll need the "rootsh" package to get root access - look at the wiki article); the GUI file manager doesn't show those files because the default user ("user") does not have permissions to modify them anyway, and they're irrelevant to Joe User anyway.
