When converting from 3200x1200 I ended up with a image thats "wrong" ( i'll attch it) BUT the important part is that the cfg file you have created is sane, and mkintrid had no issues with using it. It's good - ship it ! :D -- 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.

However, my 1920x1080 screen is not detected by linuxrc. I have to try different vga number (but it's long, need reboot each time :-) -- 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.

please, I don't know what to expect :-( I noticed that for 11.4 the bootsplash jpeg a completely black (on 11.3 they are only dimmed), so making a new image have little meaning :-) - but I did anyway.

But what does this change? At what moment in the boot process? * before the grub menu? * for the grub menu itself? * after launching the installed system? (there is a definition change soon after that) I have so many installs, I don't remember what did what :-)

Right after GRUB. -- 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.

I tried 11.3 and 11.4 If I try to use some other jpg file, mkinitrd says "not a 221111 aka 411 jpg". If I copy an other of the jpeg (for example 1024x600) to 1920x1080 name, it locks hard the computer! (at boot displays some sort of image, only part of the screen and stops), hard reboot necessary. If I remove the jpg and keep the config file, mkinitrd sees this and don't complain too much, it boots, but if I try to go to a plain terminal (Control Alt F1), I have a dumb one, with no use. may be i forgot something? I will try again -- 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.

just made an other try (on 11.3, to be faster). * I cp 1920x1200 jpegs to 192x1080 file name * mkinitrd do not protest * 11.3 boots pretty well with images (it's easier to see on 11.3, because there is a dimmed image in place of black one) * *the Control Alt F1 t-erminal don't work* - I can go but have no usable screen (do not see the cursor, may be out of screen)

so looks like we have to use the very right jpeg, but what jpeg?
