Sorry, I had forgotten to upload the new logo for SPARC. Fixed.

Re: [PATCH] Penguin logos
Finally I found some time to incorporate the very nice logos contributed by
Simon Budig. Thank you Simon!
Patches (for both 2.4.5-pre1 and 2.4.4-ac4) can be downloaded from:
http://home.tvd.be/cr26864/Linux/fbdev/logo.html
This page also shows the curent, old and new logos, and includes a tool to
extract logos in PNM format from the kernel sources (in case you don't trust me
:-) and a (NEW!) tool to convert logos in PNM format to C source suitable for
inclusion in the kernel.
I hope these are OK for all of you, so we can finally have politically correct
and good looking boot logos!
Changelog:
- 2001/05/03:
o Use the logos from Simon Budig.
o Add pnmtologo.
o Rename ARCH_LINUX_LOGO to __HAVE_ARCH_LINUX_LOGO*.
- 2001/03/08:
o This patch fixes some issues with the frame buffer device penguin logo
code.
o Bug list:
- The colors for the 16 color logo are wrong. We used a hack to give
the logo its own color palette, but this no longer works as a side
effect of a console color map bug being fixed a while ago. The
solution is to replace the logo with a new one that uses the
standard VGA console palette.
- There are still some politically-incorrect (PI) logos of a penguin
holding a glass of beer or wine (or perhaps even worse? :-).
o Changes:
1. Update the frame buffer console code to no longer change the
palette when displaying the 16 color logo. Remove the tricks to
load the logo palette in unused palette entries on displays with >=
32 colors.
2. Replace the PI 16 color Penguin-with-beer logo by a new one,
derived from the 224 color logo.
3. Remove a superfluous include from drivers/char/console.c. The logo
code was moved to drivers/video/fbcon.c a long time ago.
4. Replace the PI black & white Penguin-with-beer logo by a new one,
derived from the PostScript version on Larry Ewing's webpage.
5. Remove drivers/sgi/char/linux_logo.h (containing a PI 224 color
Penguin-with-beer logo) since it's no longer used.
6. Remove the PI black & white Penguin-with-wine logo used on SPARC
and SPARC64. Use the generic logo instead.
7. Move linux_logo_* prototypes to .
8. Simplify the logo selection logic in arch-specific
. If you want to have an arch-specific logo,
#define ARCH_LINUX_LOGO* and declare your data (if
INCLUDE_LINUX_LOGO_DATA is defined).
o Changes 1, 2 and 3 are already present in Alan's tree.
Change 5 is already present in the Linux/MIPS CVS tree.

There's still some aliasing outlines on a bunch of them and I'm a bit puzzled why there's an SGI logo on the MIPS penguin but not on the SGI penguin.
