Hi,
attached is a patch to hide the VT cursor before displaying SHR splash.
Don't know about you, but that cursor destroying the splash bitmap annoys
me. :)
There are of course other ways to do it (i.e. "tput civis") that might be
more closs-platform/terminal, but I couldn't make it work in that init
script. But that's probably not an issue, as we're always running on linux
term.

I tried that patch, but i can't see a real advantace in that patch.
The cursor is gone, but the splash screen still gets messed up by a lot of
output lines.
So i can say that patch doesn't harm, but for me it's not really usefull...
Odd. I was testing this with shr-unstable from around that time (March 6,
I believe) and it kept the splash screen intact, as the cursor was the
only thing breaking it.
Are you booting with the "quiet" kernel parameter?
I'm using qi + default SHR-shipped /boot/append-GTA02. My kernel args are:
loglevel=4 console=tty0 console=ttySAC2,115200 init=/sbin/init ro
mtdparts=physmap-flash:-(nor);neo1973-nand:0x00040000(qi),0x00040000(depr-ub-env),0x00800000(kernel),0x000a0000(depr),0x00040000(identity-ext2),0x0f6a0000(rootfs)
g_ether.dev_addr=... g_ether.host_addr=... root=/dev/mmcblk0p1 rootdelay=1
loglevel=1 quiet splash
Also, I tested this on boot from SD card only.
Best Regards,
David
