Now, when I get the "Setting framebuffer console images" (just before "Entering runlevel: 3" ) message during boot, my splash screen disappears for a moment. It's annoying because the text changes its position (goes a bit left). Then, after a moment, the text moves back right a bit and the splash screen reappears.
That's what i get in my logs:
| Code: |
Sep 1 23:52:42 mymachine fbsplash: switched splash state to 'off' on console 0
Sep 1 23:52:42 mymachine fbsplash: console 0 using theme 'emergence'
Sep 1 23:52:42 mymachine fbsplash: switched splash state to 'on' on console 0
Sep 1 23:52:42 mymachine fbsplash: console 1 using theme 'emergence'
Sep 1 23:52:42 mymachine fbsplash: switched splash state to 'on' on console 1
Sep 1 23:52:42 mymachine fbsplash: console 2 using theme 'emergence'
(...)
|
Why does it insist on "switching splash state to 'off' on console 0"? |
To stop it from resetting your splash on console 0, edit /etc/conf.d/splash. Change this line to SPLASH_TTYS="1 2 3 4 5" ...Remove 0 |

Thanks to both of you, I'll try it out as as I'm able to restart my box. |

You can try the patch (any patch actually) out with the --dry-run option and watch the console output to see if it applies cleanly. |
Thanks, I'll give it a shot.
On another note, does anybody have troubles with mplayer and/or xine inside X (due to the FB being enabled I presume) 
How about SDL problems due to the FB being in use? Any workarounds?

I want to try out GenSplash (I have Bootspash working perfectly), but how do I go about reversing the bootsplash patch? I patched it with | Code: | | # patch -p1 < bootsplash-2.6.9-rc1.diff |
Do I just do the same thing to reverse it so I can apply the gensplash patch? Thanx.
EDIT: Yea, that reversed it. Now to configure it ^_^ ...

What's the correct way to run fbsplash then? What piece of software creates this device file? |

The correct way is to use udev. If you're still using devfs, it is really a good time to upgrade. If you think that devfs works for you so there's no reason to upgrade - think again, devfs will be dead in less than half a year (that is the plan at least). If for some strange reasons you don't want to use udev, you can get the minor and major numbers from /sys/class/misc/fbsplash/dev.

Great how-to.
I was a little bit eager though and I wasn't paying as much attention as I should have been. I downloaded the gentoo-dev sources and used my oldconfig figuring all would be well while completely forgetting to enable the new kernel options.
Then I realized that mistake and enabled the options only to forget to run lilo after copying the recompile to /boot.
Now it's all working though. Good learning experience and beautiful end result.
One question: What is the advantage to this new method as opposed to bootsplash?
Nevermind. Just read all about it on spock's site. Kudos to everyone involved. Hopefully this will find its way into other distributions as well. |

For those interested, xiphux has posted a work-around in the xx-sources thread: | xiphux wrote: | I could try and make a bootsplash/fbsplash selectable option, but it might take some time.
However, that splashutils compile error is quite simple to fix; I actually posted the solution in the gensplash thread.
Go edit /usr/src/linux/include/linux/fb.h. At line 305, you'll see:
| Code: | | struct list_head modelist; |
Add an asterisk in front of modelist, so:
| Code: | | struct list_head *modelist |
It needs to be a pointer to a list head. But that breaks the other kernel stuff that depends on fb.h, so change it back after you compile splashutils.
Hopefully spock will fix that soon so the fix will no longer be necessary.
[edit]
Oh yes, another general question to everyone: does anyone know how to tell cvs to _not_ increment the version numbers and tags in files when I commit? And just leave them the hell alone? Every time I commit something, it changes the files and breaks some of my patches with those minor rejects...
Thanks.
[/edit] |
I'm not sure how well that works, but I'm going to try it and report back.
[edit]
Seems to be compiling ok. I just hope Murphy is nowhere to be found ...
[/edit]
[edit]
Seems to have worked. Just remember to undo that change as it breaks other kernel stuff if you leave it as a pointer.
[/edit]

Nope. No luck | Quote: | | Error: can't open /dev/fbsplash |
I'll go check my kernel config.

And I think I'm passing it the proper command-line in my grub config: | Quote: | default 0
timeout 10
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz

initrd (hd0,0)/fbsplash-emergence-1024x768

Yet it's not even using framebuffer at all....
/me is sad...

Curious...should I be using the vesafb-tng patch or the vesafb that's already in the kernel?
[edit]
Well, I couldn't get vesafb-tng to patch correctly on 2.6.9-rc1 (used the testing one) but just added a vga kernel parameter and it works like a charm now. Have I told you Gentoo devs how much I love you recently ?

I tried to install gensplash (splashutils 0.9_pre07) with a 2.6.8-gentoo-r3 gentoo-dev kernel. On reboot it gives a segmentation fault: "/sbin/splash: line 102: 365 Segmentation fault /sbin/splash_util -c repaint -m s --theme=${SPLASH_THEME}"
/etc/init.d/splash start gives:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
pundit root # /etc/init.d/splash start
* Setting framebuffer console images...
/sbin/runscript.sh: line 533: 6024 Segmentation fault /sbin/splash_util --vc=0 -m v -t "${theme}" -c setpic [ ok ]
pundit root #
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Could this be my punishment for using sisfb  or is it just bad luck?
Btw: in the fivestep .php file it would be nice to see a note about /sbin/splash being run before mounting filesystems so users like me who have things like /usr on a separate partition don't get confused with strange errors about "missing" files. |

Has init been taken out of baselayout and maintained in a separate package now?

Having the same issue myself and I'm wondering what the solution is... |

I also have this problem. I know its because of an update to /etc/profile. I saved my old /etc/profile just in case. Using the old version, the shell environment works fine, but the new version screws everything up. I think the colors are not disabled on purpose but I don't understand why.

I have everything working properly except for one thing,
while booting or rebooting i get random characters all over the screen.
If i enter the framebuffer after booting from X everythings ok.
Here's a screenshot:
http://img83.exs.cx/img83/4884/splash.png
Im booting using grub, heres the line:
| Code: | title=Gentoo
root=(hd0,2)
kernel=(hd0,2)/boot/bzImage root=/dev/hda3 video=vesafb:pmipal,ywrap,1024x768-16@60 gentoo=nodevfs splash=silent,theme:emergence
initrd=/boot/initrd-emergence-1024x768 |
Help !
Edit: I've done some testing, verbose and silent are both borked,
but everythings ok if I boot without bootsplash, theme or gensplash bug ? |

Pretty cool, that worked on my box with ck-sources (2.6.8.1-r6).
Just one thing: when I switch the box off, after leaving X, the console is all garbage. Using nvidia driver for X and the vesafb for the framebuffer... any idea? |

I think is's really good shot - http://bama.ua.edu/~leach003/fbshot.png
hawk072 what is your default resolution in X , monitor resolution, and videocard ?
And can somebody tell me why my 15' monitor + Nvidia Geforce4-mx440-with-AGP8x + 1024x768 gensplash craches to no gensplash + lowresolutional framebuffer ? (800x600 works normally)
