Hi Pelibali, I've had the same problem with a machine having an on-board i810 graphic card. I did some investigation but I did *not* solve my issue :( My only understanding was that this chip(set) would need a driver compiled into the kernel to support a graphical boot. I must be probably too lazy to do that, think I can bear the text-only boot until I buy I new one :D Just to make sure we're on the same page, the machine goes into X just fine once booted. So no graphic only at boot time until kdm/gdm/xdm appears. Please find below some links that I found useful at the time: http://portal.suse.com/sdb/en/2002/11/wessels_fbdev_grub.html http://i810fb.sourceforge.net/ http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/other-formats/html_single/Frameb... http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/HP-HOWTO/hp-hardware.html http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/archive/18/2005/01/3/279409 Thanks, -mw On 5/5/06, pelibali <pelibali@freemail.hu> wrote:

Hi, I have a comp here to install for someone, but I can't get the fancy bootsplash running on it even with the worst graph. resolution and in 8-bit mode! Is there a way to have bootsplash on this kind of Intel-x onboard chips or no chance at all?! During install I had "similar" problems, while could chose exclusi- vely between text-based and 640x480 resolution. I attempted both SUSE 8.2 and 9.1 Prof.

Thanks, Pelibali
