I experienced this before the console driver change, as well. Just to add a "me, too". Also, when I use the splash screen, and put up a BMP file, it shows all yellow (like putting a yellow filter on a camera lens). This used to happen before the new console driver, but only when the VESA module was used. VESA: v3.0, 4096k memory, flags:0x1, mode table:0xf026ae9e (1000022) VESA: STB Velocity 128 (RIVA 128) VESA: set_mode(): 24(18) -> 28(1c) Another aspect of the splash screen -- it (i.e. the splash image) dissappears before the boot process is over: [bunch of probes...] npx0 on motherboard npx0: INT 16 interface VESA: set_mode(): 28(1c) -> 24(18) Waiting 2 seconds for SCSI devices to settle ahc0:A:6: refuses synchronous negotiation. Using asynchronous transfers changing root device to wd0s3a da1 at ahc0 bus 0 target 6 lun 0 [more SCSI probing of drives] The splash image dissappears at the VESA: line, even though there are more boot probes going on. Is this normal? Viren -- Viren R.
