 Posted: Tue Aug 09, 2005 5:28 pm Post subject: Bootsplash - no background |
 |
|
I've followed this guide:
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_fbsplash
I've tried vesa and vesa-tng, and am now using the radeon kernel driver. All seem to work in terms of setting the console resolution - yet none display the background. They even have the padding at the bottom for the livecd graphic... it just doesn't show up. Any suggestions?
Here is my current grub.conf (keep in mind - I've also tried the vesa route)
| Code: |
default 0
timeout 10
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title=Gentoo 2.6.12 Framebuffer
root (hd0,0)
#kernel /kernel-2.6.12-gentoo-r6 root=/dev/sda8
kernel /kernel-2.6.12-gentoo-r6 root=/dev/sda8 video=radeonfb:1024x768-32@75 splash=silent,theme:livecd-2005.1 CONSOLE=/dev/tty1
|
I don't want or need the "bootsplash" per se - just the framebuffer and background.
Any suggestions? |

After many hours of fighting & cussing these lines in my grub.conf finally worked for me:
| Code: |
kernel (hd0,0)/vmlinuz ro root=/dev/hda3 video=radeonfb:1024x768-32@60 splash=verbose,theme:krusty quiet CONSOLE=/dev/tty1
initrd (hd0,0)/fbsplash-krusty-1024x768
|
Of course, the theme name is different, and the resolution/refresh rate is what my laptop supports, but the rest might help ya?
Good luck |
