Hello VN,
I do not know how to customise the boot screen, other than a recent post about about changing the user image, this is covered in the LL manual also.
You can use "Bootchart" which will make an png image in /var/log/bootchart showing the analysis of the last boot.
Or
An alternative is to use "Systemd", this has a graphical interface (GUI) available as an add on called "Systemadm" examples [sup]1[/sup].

Mouse pointers there are many mouse themes at XFCE Look (link below). Some have a variety of sets in the theme, so it gives options.
I use this theme http://xfce-look.org/content/show.php/Op...ent=111343
it is simple in appearance/not fancy, suits me (lol), and works very well for me.
You can edit the image of X11 cursors in Gimp using this plug-in -

Code:
systemd-analyze plot>boot.svg #visualize boot process in boot.svg
Code:
systemd-analyze #prints time taken to boot kernel and load services
Code:
systemd-analyze blame | head # lists of processes that take most time
