hi alzheimer,

I havn't tryied it - but i think if you only load the site (looks really ugly) and then save's it as patch.tar.gz then it whould work.

Now that framebuffer is in the gentoo-sources2.4.19r10 i enabled the gentoo logo.
But nothing popup's when loading, i need to add something to grub but i dunno what can someone tell me what grub needs to show the little logo at the top?



Thx in advance,

RickDB

you have to add an
Code:
vga=789
for 800x600@(i think)256 colors

you can find the values for all the other resolutions somewhere in the doc's at the kernel source (i think it was vga.txt - vesavga).

But this thread is for implementing the lpp patch into the gentoo sources, not for the framebuffer logo.

Mandr4ke:
I think the patch in bugs.gentoo.org will also work for r7 - give it a try (bug#10509) and then tell us if it worked for you.

i am totaly n00b with patches and kernel stuff (i know how to compile it thats all) and i woudl like to know how to get this patch working on the net 2.4.20 vanilla kernel.

This patch would help me get some of my friend getting into linux when i am going to a lan this xmas and show a cool linux boot logo which is configurable and that winblows doens't have.

I wanted to apply this after the lpp-patch --->the mo-modifyied version of ebegin (modification by flying_walus)
But it only downloads some attachment.cgi can someone tell me with which name i need to save this and how to apply?
Compiling with the lpp-patch fails same error as above, i maybe found the problem i only enabled vesa and frambuffer+logo not the lpp stuff(res etc..)

ok I'm an itiot... just had to enable lpp under console drivers compiled fine. i still have to redirect my output to tty2 its appearing over top of the splash screen... what about the init messages? they make the splash screen scroll off the top. I also have the problem with the progress bar only going to 50%.

you need the modified ebegin function from bugs.gentoo.org for that - then it will go crazy around between 50 and 100% ;-) - we are working on a better solution.

I wanted to post that there was Howto posted in the Documentation, Tips & Tricks section about this recently. (?)

https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?p=153394#153394

Based on the Suse patches from what I can tell.. and a sweet looking Darth Vader boot graphic.
