Hi list, I have since 2 months a problem with my boot up splash. Splash is working, but the init messages (like starting daemon foh ... [ok]) are written an screen "above" (for lack of a better word) my splash. When the messages reach the bottom of the screen, the splash is moving upwards with every new line printed. When the messages reach "Starting XDM" the screen is not switched to the 7th terminal, where X is running. I have to switch manually by pressing alt-F7.
Any ideas, what's wrong and how I can get back my normal boot? Could this be connected to the kernel? I remember, switching some general options in the kernel config (I think in "Processor type and features" Tickless System, High resolution timer support, preemption model (desktop) and timer frequency (1000)). Thanks for any input. Marc
