I am trying to follow this: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=49036 to allow a higher resolution bootsplash.

It says to disable
Code:
Device Drivers  --->
    Graphics support  --->
            < >   nVidia Riva support  (do not enable!)
        Logo configuration  --->
            [ ] Bootup logo  (do not enable!)


Then to make the kernel.

When compiling the kernel i get these errors:
Code:
  LD      drivers/video/aty/built-in.o
  CC      drivers/video/bootsplash/bootsplash.o
drivers/video/bootsplash/bootsplash.c: In function `splash_init':
drivers/video/bootsplash/bootsplash.c:895: warning: implicit declaration of func tion `sys_open'
drivers/video/bootsplash/bootsplash.c:902: warning: implicit declaration of func tion `sys_close'
  CC      drivers/video/bootsplash/decode-jpg.o
  CC      drivers/video/bootsplash/render.o
drivers/video/bootsplash/render.c: In function `splash_cursor':
drivers/video/bootsplash/render.c:256: error: too many arguments to function `fb _copy_cmap'
make[3]: *** [drivers/video/bootsplash/render.o] Error 1
make[2]: *** [drivers/video/bootsplash] Error 2
make[1]: *** [drivers/video] Error 2
make: *** [drivers] Error 2


Is there any way to stop this?

Its no biggy, i can live with a low res bootsplash but would like a higher res (I have tried vga=795 on the grub line that boots the kernel - this does not work)

Thanks

Maybe the kernel sources are not clean.
Save your config, cleanup the source and start a new compile
Code:
cp .config config.save
make mrproper
cp config.save .config
make oldconfig/menuconfig/xconfig
... (compile your kernel)
