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,
