Problem is, I know mine is configured right, I even have another computer to compare it with. My suspicions are that the kernel (in my case the 2.4.16) wasn't compile to allow the splash screen. I can boot back up with the 2.4.4 kernel that came with SuSE 7.2 and the splash screen works fine, but the 2.4.16 kernel from SuSE's upgrade/kernel directory doesn not.
You can always check with zgrep SPLASH /proc/config.gz On my system I get CONFIG_FBCON_SPLASHSCREEN=y You should also check the setting for the version of framebuffer you're using zgrep FB /proc/config.gz will give you the current status. Incidentally, I'm running 2.4.16 from the official update directory for 7.3. Are the kernels really different between suse versions? I can't see why they should be. //Anders
