Actually, I noticed that, since with my particular config, I need to add video=ofonly at the end of the param line (when I want to recover in the same way as Brendan), the penguin logo will stick to the top of the screen and never disappear until I reboot. The cute mascot is eating about 4 lines of text on top of the display only if I enter the parameter line like you show above (+ video=ofonly appened to it). This won't happen when I do a standard selection. Is that a bug? Laurent
