Package: splashy
Version: 0.3.13-3
Severity: important
On boot I get the error:
Splashy ERROR: Couldn't splashy_start_splasy(). Error -3
and then:
Splashy ERROR: Connection refused
I am using the Debian compiled kernels so splashy is in initramfs.
I am also using a single partition for /.
I have /home as a separate partition but only one big /.
I have tried purge and reinstall.
I have tried with 2.6.26 and 2.6.28 kernels.
I am using grub-pc so I added this line to /etc/default/grub and ran
update-grub:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="vga=791
splash"
My grub.conf lines:
menuentry "Debian GNU/Linux, linux 2.6.28-1-amd64" {
set root=(hd0,3)
search --fs-uuid --set 3ba3cdd4-790b-4e94-a3ca-48c129b55272
linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.28-1-amd64
root=UUID=3ba3cdd4-790b-4e94-a3ca-48c129b55272 ro quiet vga=791 splash
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.28-1-amd64
}
...
menuentry "Debian GNU/Linux, linux
2.6.26-1-amd64" {
set
root=(hd0,3)
search --fs-uuid --set
3ba3cdd4-790b-4e94-a3ca-48c129b55272
linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.26-1-amd64
root=UUID=3ba3cdd4-790b-4e94-a3ca-48c129b55272 ro quiet vga=791 splash
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.26-1-amd64
}
...
Running "splashy test" after boot gives the same -3 error.
My video card is an Intel Corporation 82Q35 Express Integrated Graphics
Controller
I have tried to add "video=intelfb" to the kernel options but I get
errors that splashy isn't configured correctly.
I did have this working before but I don't know what version of splashy
was working as I was trying out Ubuntu
for a bit and then came back to Debian.
