I've added the lines to /boot/loader.conf, my kernel has VESA compiled into it, but still no joy. Are there any know problems? I don't appear to get any error messages; rather the boot loader appears, then once gone I just get the standard list of found hardware. The picture's good, I got it here: http://www.baldwin.cx/splash/ Thanks all Phil. ---------------------------------------------------------- UNIX is user-friendly; it's just picky about its friends!!!
