Try 0x31B, it might be happier with 24 bit colour. |

You can't have a framebuffer splash and tux, it's one or the other. I believe |
| 9 |
this is documented in some inconvenient place in the kernel configuration. |

Relevant parts of my grub.conf: |
| 13 |
kernel /boot/kernel-2.6.20-gentoo root=/dev/sda2 vga=0x31B |
| 14 |
splash=verbose,theme:echoes video=vesafb:mtrr,ywrap |
| 15 |
initrd /boot/initrd-fbsplash |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
(I chose the easy method and put my splash images in an initramfs file, but if |
| 18 |
you've added yours to the kernel that should work fine too) |
