Mah Fello Tuxians, I've been using the bf24 kernel ever since I installed Woody, but I've just compiled my first custom kernel, and although the resulting kernel runs ok, I was distressed (shocked even ;-) to find I no longer get a cheery Tux logo in the top left-hand corner of the screen as Linux boots. How do I get it back ?
I've done some hunting, and found the "Linux Kernel Logo Patch Project" site at http://www.arnor.net/linuxlogo/, where there is the statement : "When using a framebuffer console, the Linux kernel displays a small penguin logo on the screen at boot time" (The project itself appears to be more concerned with fiddling with or suppressing the logo, but implies that the base logo feature is built in to modern kernels.) "Aha", I thought, "perhaps I didn't request a framebuffer console in the kernel config". But I've looked and looked - and can't find anywhere in "make menuconfig" where a framebuffer console is even mentioned. Can anyone help me out here ?
