I'm having trouble with my console vanishing after X quits when I

before? If so, did you find a solution?
If you don't have an NVIDIA card, ignore...
If you're using the NVIDIA proprietary drivers, the use of bootsplash
is not supported. NVIDIA doesn't provide a framebuffer driver for use
with the console, and their X driver assumes there is no framebuffer
running on the card. You would probably get exactly the behavior you
describe if you tried using bootsplash and NVIDIA's drivers...
I disagree
I am using a framebuffer with nvidia's drivers on my gentoo machine. I
am using gensplash (http://dev.gentoo.org/~spock/projects/gensplash/) to
provide the splash image.
My kernel boot line is:
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.11-gentoo-r6-chris-5 root=/dev/hda2
video=vesafb:ywrap,mtrr,[EMAIL PROTECTED] splash=silent,theme:mythtv
I have compiled vesa-tng into my kernel for framebuffer, and have NOT
selected "Bootup Logo"
Sorry I can't help the original poster - I do not see the problem he is
describing.
