Hi all,

I had the same problem, and I managed to get the splashscreen working by
~ commenting out the section in fbcon-splash.c which produces the error
message.
But the splash has serious side-effects:
~ After launching an application which uses fb (fbxine for instance)
~   the framebuffer does no longer update the text. When switching to
~   silent splash (kernel cmdline splash=silent), nothing I type can be
~   seen on the terminal, the image remains static. Switching to other
~   terminals (ctrl-alt-fx) yields the same results.
When launching the kernel with splash disabled (splash=disabled), the
screen displays some random mess, except for the tux logo in the upper
right corner,

so i suggest you stay away from splash screens, although they do look cool..

br,
~ Manuel Lauss
