Matthew and Amit, Updates from my test, I guess this issue was root caused:
After one half day tracing and testing, I found actually this issue was caused by another config option "CONFIG_VM86" not setting. usplash source code ~/svgalib/src/lrmi.c (Linux real mode interface) with entry function line 587:run_vm86() need this kernel option to call 16bit VGA bios code to initialize video cards. Without this option, the video card will not be set to desired mode through VGA bios. I also tested, when remove CONFIG_VM86, Moblin kernel fell in same case of UME kernel. My apology for the previous FB_VESA misleading. -- usplash could not run on Ubuntu UME flavored kernel https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/133557 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
