Ok, now I tryed to test if my boot splash would work, but it didn't work, giving me this:

Code:

# splashy test
Splashy ERROR: libsplashy: Framebuffer is not configured properly please see http://tinyurl.com/339h67
Splashy ERROR: Couldn't splashy_start_splashy(). Error -2

From there, I made the settings and my /etc/grub/menu.lst looks like this

Code:

title           Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.26-1-486
root            (hd0,0)
kernel          /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.26-1-486 root=/dev/hda1 ro splash vga=791 quiet
initrd          /boot/initrd.img-2.6.26-1-486

Still giving the same error. What is wrong? Installed splashy from the repositorys.

Did you update the initramfs?

Yah, updated it but I still keep getting the same error, it's kinda irritating

Try disabling the frame buffer drivers to prevent mapping your video card memory into the virtual memory space....
Replace vga=791 with:
video=vesa

ff vga=normal

Code:

video=vesa:off vga=normal

Hmmh, after a power outage, it started to work for some reason, don't know why.
