Hi There

During development of a new driver I found that tux is not drawn upon
boot of the kernel if I boot into a 24 or 32 bpp framebuffer
(truecolor, packed pixels) and use the software accelerated routines.

First I thought that I might have done something wrong, but then I
tried the aty128 driver on a ATI Rage 128 card and the same thing
happened.

I now know that my driver behaves like it should, but would anybody
care to explain why it is so? Skimming the logo setup code I see code
for handling truecolor modes and setting up pseudopalettes and stuff,
so I can not see any reasons for it not to be working.

Regards Thomas, Denmark
