Hi.
It seems that you may be loading the wrong kernel!

i mistake in typing.
The kernel si 2.6.12.5.
Very strange is that i see black page then i come to gentoo. Instead of black page i must see splash. I don't know where is the problem.
Thnx

i try emergense, gentoo and livecd but not working
I look this howto http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_fbsplash#Configuring_Your_Bootloader
but i get something with 1024x768.cfg not valid image or something and something with NULL
I look in log but i can't found this error that i can paste it here?

Sure. It will be easier for us to understand your problem.
Have you looked at this HOWTO?

yes i try everything and read almost everything. Until few weeks ago everything works nice. Now i even try | Code: | | genkernel --menuconfig --gensplash=emergence all |
this is my grub.conf
| Code: |
# For booting GNU/Hurd

initrd /boot/initramfs-genkernel-x86-2.6.12-gentoo-r10

but still not working!
this is from dmesg

Were you using genkernel before you started having problems? Did your problems occur with kernel-2.6.12?
Your kernel line in grub.conf is a single line, right? What version of splashutils have you emerged?

So I'm assuming your problems began with kernel 2.6.12. If so, that was caused by kernel 2.6.12 replacing the old initrd format with the new intiramfs format. That means that you have to recreate your old initrd file, with splash_geninitramfs. You must also go back to your manual kernel and replace the kernel and initrd lines in grub.conf.
I think that your version of splashutils won't cause any problems.

ok i will try. I see that is still in portage 2.5.9-r9 kernel. Is it still smart to use it or not and it's better to use 2.6.12?
Maybe splash has problems in 2.6.12 kernel and will work with 2.6.9.

You should try to use the latest packages. A newer kernel addresses problems that existed in previous versions or includes new features. I'm using 2.6.12 with splashutils, so it does work. I was forced to recreate the initrd file and to update the splashutils package, but that was all that was required.

Please post the versions of the kernel and splashutils. Show what framebuffer you're using in the kernel.
Explain what you've been doing to have the splash working.

oki am using 2.6.12-nitro5 kernel, splash utils is version 1.1.9.9 and i amusing vesafb as framebuffer.
I try everything. I try with genkernel and manually compile kernel but nothing works!
i have radeon 9700 mobility graphic card.
Now i made that muc that i can see splash image. At first i get blank page i don't know why then i see splash image. Sometime work somethime system freeze? It woks just one time all other times freez?
verry verry funny! Looks like that i am totaly n00b that i can't make one splash for whole day!

Given that you're using the nitro-sources and I wasn't able to find any recent thread on splash and the nitro-sources, do you mind trying to build the splash with the gentoo-sources. That will allow to understand if the problem is related to the nitro-sources or if it's something else.
Please try with gentoo-sources-2.6.12 or gentoo-sources-2.6.13. You can keep your current nitro kernel and build a new gentoo kernel.

with gentoo-sources driver i get this error
| Code: |
8139cp: 10/100 PCI Ethernet driver v1.2 (Mar 22, 2004)
8139cp: pci dev 0000:02:03.0 (id 10ec:8139 rev 10) is not an 8139C+ compatible chip
8139cp: Try the "8139too" driver instead.
8139too Fast Ethernet driver 0.9.27
|
with nitro after 60% of splash loading system freeze. Here i get this error with problem of 8139cp.
Where is that in kernel that i can change it. Can you look by ssh becouse i really don't know what is wrong!
thnx

Have you tried compiling support for the 8139too module instead?
Do you need help with that?

If you can't boot with your system, use the live-cd to boot, then mount your partitions and chroot.
Go to your kernel dir and change the kernel config
| Code: | # cd /usr/src/linux
# make menuconfig |
Select under Device Drivers --> Network device support --> Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit) the Realtek-8129/8130/8139 ... as module <M> and remove the Realtek-8139 C+ PCI ... < >. Now compile the kernel and install it.
| Code: | # make && make modules_install
# cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/kernel-2.6.12-new-gentoo
# cp .config /boot/config-2.6.12-new-gentoo
# cp System.map /boot/System.map-new-gentoo |
Then edit your /boot/grub/grub.conf file and include the following
| Code: | title Gentoo-2.6.12-new
root (hd0,4)
kernel /kernel-2.6.12-new-gentoo root=/dev/hda7
|
Finally, exit, unmount the partitions and reboot. Can you boot your system with this kernel? If so, then let's look at the framebuffer.

So you can boot now, right? That's an improvement! 
So you have a radeon 9700 mobility card and I suspect are using the ati-drivers? Have you looked at the Gensplash HOWTO? Don't patch your kernel and follow the kernel config. If you've changed anything, compile the kernel again and copy it to /boot. Create the splash initramfs with the appropriate resolution
| Code: | # splash_geninitramfs -g /boot/fbsplash-emergence-1280x1024 -r 1280x1024 emergence
# splash_geninitramfs -g /boot/fbsplash-emergence-1024x768 -r 1024x768 emergence |
Then edit your grub.conf file and replace the previous entry with
| Code: | title Gentoo-2.6.12-new
root (hd0,4)
kernel /kernel-2.6.12-new-gentoo root=/dev/hda7 quiet splash=verbose,theme:emergence video=vesafb:ywrap,mtrr,1024x768-32@60 CONSOLE=/dev/tty1
initrd /boot/fbsplash-emergence-1024x768 |
Finally add splash to your default run-level and reboot
| Code: | | # rc-update add splash default |
Does it work?

To remove the device mapper errors, remove the support from the kernel or boot with the option nolvm2 - you can append it to the end of your kernel line in grub.conf.

You can add to the end of the kernel line the option nolvm2.
If you want to remove from the kernel the support, look under Device Drivers --> Multi-device support (RAID and LVM) and remove the Device mapper support. You need to recompile the kernel and copy it to /boot
Does it solve your problem?
