Yeah, I only tried that in an attempt at shotgun-debugging :P |

Thanks for helping in tracking down this issue. Here's /etc/conf.d/splash: |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
SPLASH_VERBOSE_ON_ERRORS="no" |
| 26 |
SPLASH_EFFECTS="fadein,fadeout" |
| 27 |
SPLASH_TEXTBOX="no" |
| 28 |
SPLASH_AUTOVERBOSE="0" |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
In /etc/conf.d/fbcondecor everything is commented out. |

fbcondecor boot |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
(Note that I had to rc-update fbcondecor into boot by hand. The ebuild |
| 48 |
did not do this and also didn't mention the existence of the script at |
| 49 |
all. The only thing mentioned is there was a change from some older |
| 50 |
splash version which doesn't say much for 1st time users like me.) |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
Meanwhile I switched from uvesafb to the old vesafb to see if it has |
| 53 |
something to do with it. Same result. I also re-emerged klibc and |
| 54 |
splashutils. No go. |
| 55 |
|
| 56 |
(The kernel has "[*] Support for the Framebuffer Console Decorations" |
| 57 |
enabled.) |

|

Package versions: |
| 60 |
|
| 61 |
sys-devel/gcc (~)4.3.1-r1 |
| 62 |
media-gfx/splashutils (~)1.5.4.1 (1st try) |
| 63 |
media-gfx/splashutils 1.5.3.4 (2nd try) |
| 64 |
dev-libs/klibc 1.5.8 (1st try) |
| 65 |
dev-libs/klibc (~)1.5.12-r1 (2nd try) |
| 66 |
sys-kernel/gentoo-sources 2.6.25-r6 (1st try) |
| 67 |
sys-kernel/gentoo-sources 2.6.24-r8 (2nd try) |
| 68 |
|
| 69 |
I hope this won't turn out to be a GCC 4.3 issue :P I will emerge gcc |
| 70 |
4.1.2 and try again with that. |
| 71 |
|
| 72 |
I'm on AMD64 (if this is relevant.) |
