Hi All, |

I've just compiled kernel-2.6.24-gentoo-r3 which comes with uvesa and thought |
| 4 |
of using it on a box of mine. However, amidst other weird and wonderful |
| 5 |
errors that the new kernel gives me on this box, I have completely failed to |
| 6 |
get uvesafb to work. |
| 7 |
|

When it boots up it comes up with these errors: |
| 9 |
===================================================== |
| 10 |
* Setting framebuffer console images |
| 11 |
Can't open cfg file //etc/splash/emergence/640x480.cfg |
| 12 |
No 8bpp silent picture specified in the theme |
| 13 |
No 8bpp verbose picture specified in the theme |
| 14 |
* Failed to set background image on tty1 |
| 15 |
===================================================== |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
Meanwhile the penguins and fonts on the boot console are shown in some |
| 18 |
impossibly large size. My kernel line is: |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
kernel /kernel-2.6.24-gentoo-r3 root=/dev/sda3 \ |
| 21 |
video=uvesafb:1280x1024-32@60,ywrap,mtrr:4, \ |
| 22 |
splash=silent,fadein,theme:emergence quiet CONSOLE=/dev/tty1 |
| 23 |
initrd /boot/fbsplash-emergence-1280x1024 |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
Any ideas? |
