Hi Wael, Thanks for help.
According to http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_fbsplash: uvesafb - a newer (>=2.6.23) generic, _non-accelerated_ driver that supports additional features such as custom resolutions. Unlike other drivers, it requires a userspace daemon called v86d to run (provided in the sys-apps/v86d package) intelfb - an _accelerated_ driver for Intel chipsets That's why I selected intelfb. Any chance to get it working or it's more easy to forget about it?
