I have this issue, I guess it comes from the bios. It is a gateway board. I seen it with a couple of distro's, so I don't think thats it. maybe xorg. But why inside Intel logo?

during boot right before xfce splash I get 4 0r 5 inside intel logo's across the top of the screen, just a little blury. the bottom of the screen is screwed up resolution. some times it is very clear. I just loaded slackware 12.2, and I just can't figure out why inside intel. I do belive the graphic chip is intel. I have to check.

so if anyone know's why intel or how to stop it from displaying please let me know.

That's a bios setting, not Linux. You need to access your bios settings to turn it off, if you want.

It sounds to me that you are seeing a remnant of the previous contents of the video ram present before it is cleared.

I thought that, I'll try to just shut down every bios screen option

the bottom half I agree, but what about the inside Intel logo, were is that coming from.

now that I think about it the system is booted and I'm log in. Its right after "startx" and before the xfce splash. X server? were is that coming from.

I ran xorgsetup and and its gone thanks for the help. I did see the last log out screen from xfce at the bottom, and the inside intel logo the boot before I ran xorgsetup. still would like to know were the logo came in.
