Description David L. Parsley 2002-02-09 20:07:29 UTC 
Description of Problem:
Kernel boot banner had psychadelic colors.  This was booting on an IBM thinkpad
A21m, ATI Rage Mobility.

How Reproducible:
Every time I boot the install CD

Same happened for me on a Matrox G400 on a desktop machine
Comment 2 Chris Ricker 2002-02-10 19:24:41 UTC 
I'm experiencing this on a Compaq 1200 series with a Trident CyberBlade graphics
chipset as well.
Comment 3 Chris Ricker 2002-02-10 21:22:14 UTC 
I'm also experiencing it on a MGA G200
Comment 4 Arjan van de Ven 2002-02-10 21:24:14 UTC 
Ok Ok you guys busted me

(but serious, I'll try to upgrade a box that supports the bootlogo on monday)

That's definitely *not* what I'm seeing. ;-)
Comment 7 David L. Parsley 2002-02-10 21:37:07 UTC 
beautiful. If only it was displayed with the same palette on my laptop.
Comment 8 Gene Czarcinski 2002-02-11 15:33:26 UTC 
I suggest you simplify the color scheme.  On a ATI Rage Pro lit looks terrible
although I can see the "redhat linux".
Comment 9 Chris Ricker 2002-03-22 05:11:03 UTC 
This is fixed for me with beta3.  If no one else hollers, I think it can be closed.
