I made a few diffs between my old working 2.6.7 kernel and the 2.6.9 and found something interesting in fbmem.c: --------------- @@ -723,7 +419,7 @@ if (fb_logo.logo == NULL || info->state != FBINFO_STATE_RUNNING) return 0; - image.depth = fb_logo.depth; + image.depth = 8; image.data = fb_logo.logo->data; if (fb_logo.needs_cmapreset) --------------- So, on my 2.6.9, I replaced the '8' by 'fb_logo.depth' and now the logo is shown! (but the screen is still not cleared as before when the kernel boots). Where's the QA guy ? I want to see him now ! ;-) Cheers, -- Ludovic DROLEZ Linbox / Free&ALter Soft 152 rue de Grigy - Technopole Metz 2000 57070 METZ tel : 03 87 50 87 90 fax : 03 87 75 19 26 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Sybase ASE Linux Express Edition - download now for FREE LinuxWorld Reader's Choice Award Winner for best database on Linux. http://ads.osdn.com/?ad_id=5588&alloc_id=12065&op=click
