[Gumstix-users] Boot logo

[Markus S. <msv...@ae...>]

Dear Gumstix community,

I am having trouble getting the Overo to display the logo graphic during 
boot at 800x600 DVI resolution.

- dvimode variable in u-boot set to "800x600MR-16@60"
- in "org.openembedded.dev/recipes/linux/linux-omap3-2.6.34" replaced 
the contents of "logo_linux_clut224.ppm" with a custom image, 800x600, 
224 colours

When I rebuild the kernel and boot up the Overo, I just get a black 
screen until the login prompt is reached. However when I change the 
u-boot dvimode variable back to 1024x768, then the custom 800x600 image 
is displayed during booting. This leads me to think that there is 
nothing wrong with my custom .ppm image, but rather that the 800x600 
screen resolution is the problem.

Thanks,
Markus.
