Hi all.
I'm trying to get a 1024x768 theme working on my tibook ( I've got 1280x854 themes working ). It insists on booting into 1280x854, no matter what video= thing I pass to the kernel. At the moment, I'm using:
| Code: | image=/boot/2.6.12-gentoo-r6
label=splash
read-only
initrd=/boot/livecd
initrd-size=8192
append="video=radeonfb:1024x768-32 splash=silent,fadein,theme:livecd-2005.1 quiet CONSOLE=/dev/tty1"
|
The first bit of my dmesg output:
| Code: | Total memory = 1024MB; using 2048kB for hash table (at c0400000)

During booting, I get errors that bootsplash can't find a config file for 1280x854. Is it actually possible to force a tibook to boot at 1024x768? If not, is it feasible to convert the excellent livecd-2005.1 theme to 1280x854. I know there's a lot of additional stuff in there - icons and stuff for various stages of booting ... ie the main reason I'm after this theme. Or should I give up and use another theme? |

As far as I know, the LCD is a fixed resolution, so you can't switch to 1024x768. As for resizing the theme, the only way I know how to do it is manually, but I also haven't used bootsplash recently.

Just a thought, did you try with 24 bit graphics? ie 1024x768-24 instead of 1024x768-32? 32 bits is actually 24 bits plus 8 bits for transparency, so 24 bits should give your the same result basically.
Hope this helps. |
