Hi list, this is a rather minor issue, but since I'm about to deploy FreeBSD/DesktopBSD on some average users laptops, I'm interested in getting this fixed: The Splash Screen on IBM Thinkpads isn't displayed correctly. On a T23 it's totally distorted, a part of the image is displayed several times on the upper quarter of the screen. On a T60 the screen is displayed correctly, but the color map doesn't fit. I tried using both BMP and PCX-Images with different resolutions and color depths, and it's always the same result: As long as I'm using something that requires the Vesa-Module the image isn't displayed correctly, while small images (e.g. 320x200) work flawlessly. Is there anything I can do to offer my users a windoze-like feeling with a decent bloot splash screen? And to be honest, I like obi_chuck.bmp and emily_black. ;-) Cheers Christian
