| |
Hi,
Apoligies in advance if this is not the right place to send this report.
When displaying a screen-wide icon in the frame buffer for the graphics console:
Linux version 2.4.0
Console Drivers Video mode selection support Support for frame buffer devices (EXPERMENTAL) VESA VGA graphics console
I found the right edge of the image to be displayed on the left edge -- perhaps 8 pixels worth?
I compiled for a pentium III, SMP on. I've a dual processor Pentium III with a Matrox Graphics, Inc. MGA G400 AGP video card. I discovered this using the lpp-0.2.0 patch at http://lpp.freelords.org, which displays a startup screen.
Fix: turning SMP off fixed the problem.
FYI: fbcon_show_logo() in drivers/video/fbcon.c seems to have a for loop with an odd smp_num_cpus reference.
Please contact me if you need any more information or wish to tell me where to send this report.
Regards,
Karl <kop@meme.com>
