[Bug 230839] New: permanent bootsplash background while booting
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=230839 Summary: permanent bootsplash background while booting Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: i586 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Minor Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: bluedzins@wp.pl QAContact: qa@suse.de When the computer boots the bootsplash is displayed. It is possible to turn it off though, so I turned it off. It is also possible to specify (fbset) which resolution use while booting. Now, if you choose 1280x1024 everything is fine, but if you use 1024x768 you get bootsplash background (white-silver waves on the black), not bootsplash itself, only the background. Annoying since I already turned the bootsplash off. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

Does "only the background" mean that you get "verbose" mode (with text messages) instead of "silent" mode (just the graphics)? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=230839 ------- Comment #2 from bluedzins@wp.pl 2007-01-02 07:44 MST ------- I used sysconf editor and searched for bootsplash, I set "no" but it didn't work. So I edited boot loader config (yast also) and deleted part about bootsplash. Now I have "verbose" mode with text messages, yes but with background -- so it looks like an transparent image (white waves) and text (booting messages). I could take a photo of it, if it would help. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

You can turn off the splash completely by either 1) deleting the vga= parameter from the boot loader config. But beware, this will also disable the frame buffer. 2) calling 'mkinitrd -s off' to create a initrd with no splash screen. Unfortunately mkinird ignores the sysconfig setting (a bug), so you'll have to do this again after a kernel update (because the update does a mkinitrd without the -s off) 3) adding "splash=0" to the boot loader config. I'll reassign this bug to the mkinitrd maintainer, so that the next version of opensuse will obey sysconfig's SPLASH=no. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
