Cannot get linux logo (splash) to show correctly in Kernel 3.14-ti

Hi,

I’m trying to get a boot splash to show by overwriting /drivers/video/logo/logo_linux_clut_224.ppm and rebuilding the kernel (using version 3.14.56-ti-r78). This worked well in Kernel 3.8, but now it doesn’t show the logo at boot, just a console output of the boot process.

Is there something different or additional config that has to be done for kernel 3.14? I have the logo enabled in the .config and tried adding “splash quiet” as kernel parameters in uEnv.txt, but I still only get a console display.

Any ideas would be great!

Thanks

Did you set:

console=tty0 ?

in your bootargs?

Yes, I changed it for ttyO0 and now it just shows a black screen. I guess that’s kind of better, but still no splash :frowning:

Here’s my current uEnv.txt if it helps:

uname_r=3.14.56-ti-r78
##This will work with: Angstrom’s 2013.06.20 u-boot.
cmdline = splash
loadaddr=0x82000000
fdtaddr=0x88000000
rdaddr=0x88080000

initrd_high=0xffffffff
fdt_high=0xffffffff

loadximage=load mmc 0:1 ${loadaddr} /boot/vmlinuz-${uname_r}
loadxfdt=load mmc 0:1 ${fdtaddr} /boot/dtbs/${uname_r}/${fdtfile}
loadxrd=load mmc 0:1 ${rdaddr} /boot/initrd.img-${uname_r}; setenv rdsize ${filesize}
loaduEnvtxt=load mmc 0:1 ${loadaddr} /boot/uEnv.txt ; env import -t ${loadaddr} ${filesize};
loadall=run loaduEnvtxt; run loadximage; run loadxfdt;

mmcargs=setenv bootargs console=ttyO0 ${optargs} root=${mmcroot} rootfstype=${mmcrootfstype} ${cmdline}

uenvcmd=run loadall; run mmcargs; bootz ${loadaddr} - ${fdtaddr};

Thanks again
