The splash screen stopped working when I upgraded to baselayout-2.0.1. I regenerated the initial ram image, but nothing appears to be working. These are my kernel options - video=vesafb:mtrr:3,ywrap vga=0x323 splash=silent,theme:gentoo console=tty1 quiet Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Could you please post the output of `fbset -i` after boot? Also, does `splash_manager -c demo -t gentoo' work?
splash_manager -c demo -t gentoo works There's no command called 'fbset' in my system.
(In reply to comment #2) > splash_manager -c demo -t gentoo works OK. Could you please modify your splash kernel command line options to read splash=silent,theme:gentoo,profile, boot with new option, and attach your /lib/splash/cache/profile file generated when the system boots? > There's no command called 'fbset' in my system. You just need to run `emerge fbset`.

Here is my current line - video=vesafb:mtrr:3,ywrap vga=0x323 splash=silent,theme:gentoo,profile console=tty1 quiet Before it was - video=vesafb:mtrr:3,ywrap vga=0x323 splash=silent,theme:gentoo console=tty1 quiet > > There's no command called 'fbset' in my system. > > You just need to run `emerge fbset`. > Doing that.
Output of fbset - mode "1024x768-76" # D: 78.653 MHz, H: 59.949 kHz, V: 75.694 Hz geometry 1024 768 1024 768 32 timings 12714 128 32 16 4 128 4 rgba 8/16,8/8,8/0,0/0 endmode Frame buffer device information: Name : VESA VGA Address : 0xf8000000 Size : 6291456 Type : PACKED PIXELS Visual : TRUECOLOR XPanStep : 0 YPanStep : 0 YWrapStep : 0 LineLength : 4096 Accelerator : No This is after adding 'profile' in grub.conf
The output of `fbset -i` looks good. Could you please post the output of `ls -l /lib/splash/cache/` and `mount`?

Do you have the /lib/splash/tmp directory? Does it contain any files? Also, could you please try removing the /lib/splash directory entirely and remerging splashutils to see whether this changes anything?
Do you have the /lib/splash/tmp directory? Does it contain any files? Yes and no. Remerging....
Ok, I did a revdep and the problem got fixed... Thanks.
