http://en-gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Framebuffer helps sort out what to expect with SiS, and how to set things right. With Lucid I get my best performance by adding the following: 'video=sisfb:mode:1024x768x32,rate:70,mem:4096' between 'ro' and 'quiet splash' in the grub menu entry. Leave off the quote marks, be precise with punctuation.

This is probably another way to look at bug #530554. I agree with bug #530554 note 2. Lucid installer may (or must) not recognize SiS video needs sisfb. I don't remember this being a problem for me in Ubuntu 9.10, or say before Plymouth. -- Old SiS video needs v86d for Lucid Plymouth https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/584339 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 584339] Re: Old SiS video needs v86d for Lucid Plymouth
v86d does solve this problem; however, adding sisfb to /etc/modules does just as well. The splash screen does have an imperfection as shown in bun 521018, but it's not as objectionable as 30 seconds of black screen. -- Old SiS video needs v86d for Lucid Plymouth https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/584339 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
