Bug Description
Binary package hint: usplash
I have dist-upgraded from dapper to edgy. Now nothing appears on screen at boot time between the grub menu and the X server.
I have a GeForce2 MX/MX 400 video card, and I am using the x.org driver, not nvidia's binary. My monitor is an LCD one of 1600 x 1200 res, with an analogue connection. (I boot with vga=0x315 to set the tty res to 800x600, and the monitor switches to this res until X starts.)
I have usplash and usplash-
If I do a update-grub, it says "Searching for splash image ... none found, skipping ..."
However:
richard@banana:~$ ls -l /etc/alternativ
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 40 2006-10-26 16:08 /etc/alternativ
richard@banana:~$ ls -l /usr/lib/usplash/
total 2588
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 36 2006-10-26 16:08 usplash-artwork.so -> /etc/alternativ
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2643804 2006-10-25 13:40 usplash-
richard@banana:~$
Any help greatly appreciated. TIA.
Please make sure usplash.conf agrees with you on the resolution.
