Enabling splash in the kernel causes text to start a 1/3 of the way over on the |
| 2 |
screen and wraps around (after decompressing kernel). Hardly legible and no |
| 3 |
splash image to be seen, nvidia module will not load (no screens found error) |
| 4 |
and editing files is difficult due to this shifted display effect. I'd really |
| 5 |
like to get it working at my native resolution of 1680x1050@60. |

Recently compiled 2.6.12-gentoo-r6 with FB kernel options shown below. I've |
| 10 |
downloaded gentoo, livecd-2005.1 and emergence splash themes. Ran |
| 11 |
`splash_geninitramfs -v -g /boot/fbsplash-gentoo-1280x1024 -r 1280x1024 gentoo` |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
added these lines to grub: |
| 14 |
"kernel /kernel-2.6.12-gentoo-r6-wfb quiet root=/dev/hda7 |
| 15 |
video=vesafb:ywrap,mtrr,1280x1024-32@60 splash=verbose,theme:gentoo |
| 16 |
CONSOLE=/dev/tty1" |
| 17 |
"initrd /boot/fbsplash-gentoo-1280x1024" |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
hp pavilion zd7620us, nvidia 7667 drivers on a geforce fx go 5700 running |
| 20 |
1680x1050, i've tried using 1680x1050 with no luck as well as 1600x1200. |
