 Posted: Mon Dec 22, 2003 3:18 pm Post subject: Does not fit into framebuffer |
 |
|
I've been playing with bootsplash and it's working. But I'm trying to get the progress bar / silent mode to work. I looked at /etc/bootsplash/default/config/bootsplash-1280x1024.cfg and all the options seem to be configured correctly. However, when I boot I find this message:
| Quote: | vesafb: framebuffer at 0xe8000000, mapped to 0xe0814000, size 2560k
Looking for splash picture.... silenjpeg size 75071 bytes, does not fit into framebuffer.

I figured the .jpg was too large so I tried to switch it with the 1024x768 one. And this time I get:

Not sure why it does it so many times. I've poured through the bootsplash threads but very few seem to be using the silent option. I'm a frequent traveller and like to fire up the laptop while I wait for the plane to board. I want a big 'ol linux logo to be there while curious onlookers peer over. I'd REALLY like the picture of Tux with the flyswatter. Anyone know where I can find that? |

| What sources are you running? Gentoo sources? Vanilla? I remember a thread way back about having to patch the Gentoo sources specifically to allow the framebuffer image to fit. |

| Gentoo-sources. I'll double check the framebuffer - bootsplash thread and see if I missed that step. I most likely did. Thanks for the tip. |

silent bootsplash doesn`t work with gentoo 2.4... sources
try different kernel (gaming, or ck, or even 2.6)
