>Organization:
>Environment:
FreeBSD 4.6.2 GENERIC kernel, IBM ThinkPad 240X laptop (SMI LynxEM+ video)

>Description:
	Loading the VESA module on this laptop causes the splash screen to
	appear corrupted, although the same 320x200 splash image appears fine
	without the VESA module loaded (and also displays fine as a screen
	saver even if the VESA module is subsequently loaded; however, the
	screen saver image is still corrupt if VESA was loaded at boot time,
	even if the VESA module is subsequently unloaded).

	With the 320x200 image, the display appears as eight tiny versions
	of the splash image strung horizontally along the top central portion
	of the screen.

	An 800x600 image is displayed as indeterminate corruption in the top
	portion of the full screen.

	I see the same behaviour for BMP and PCX splash images.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Use the following in /boot/loader.conf:
	  vesa_load="YES"
	  splash_bmp_load="YES"
	  bitmap_load="YES"
	  bitmap_name="/boot/power_logo2.bmp"
