Ok, that should definitely be enabled.

Matthew and Amit,
Updates from my test, I guess this issue was root caused:
After one half day tracing and testing, I found actually this issue was
caused by another config option CONFIG_VM86 not setting. usplash
source code ~/svgalib/src/lrmi.c (Linux real mode interface) with entry
function
-generic only set CONFIG_FB_VESA for a short time due to a mistaken
reversion of a patch. What options are you passing to the kernel on
boot? CONFIG_FB_VESA will only do something if you pass the vga=
argument, which you shouldn't be doing.

Matthew, no I did not pass any vga= parameters to kernel. So I have to
re-do the test and find again which kernel config option broke the
usplash. Once confirmed, I would post resut here.

You received
By default Ubuntu linux-generic kernel already set CONFIG_FB_VESA=y, and
this works fine both for suspend/resume and usplash. We found for UME
kernel, this option was not set and usplash will show a red dead
screen during booting.
Our test board is Crown-beach.

usplash could not run on
No, usplash has its own vesa handling code. Setting CONFIG_FB_VESA to y
is a bad plan if you want suspend and resume to work reliably. Could you
provide more information about your platform and the observed failure?
