Re: [U-Boot] Uboot bitmap utility
Wolfgang, I resolved my issue. I am now able to write bitmaps to the framebuffer. Thanks, Steve - Steven Zedeck wrote: Wolfgang, Yes, I do see what U-boot is doing.

Correct or am I missing something? Did I interpret the code correctly? Does it expect 16 bits per color?

Re: [U-Boot] Uboot bitmap utility
Hi Steven, Yes, I do see what U-boot is doing. I looked at bmp_logo.c and its output. It seems that the color palette entries are all 16 bits (unsigned short). To synch up - you are trying to use the 'logo_plot' code from drivers/video/cfb_console.c, right? For my application, I have 24 bit color, which expects each pixel to be 32 bits, of which only 24 bits are used. So the palette, I assume, should be unsigned longs for each color entry. Correct or am I missing something? Rather than changing this code, why don't you switch to the bmp routines (common/cmd_bmp.c + (one option) common/lcd.c) which recently got support for 16bpp displays? It may be easier to add 32-bit support here... Did I interpret the code correctly? Does it expect 16 bits per color? It seems so.. Cheers Detlev -- ... does Linux have a better [security] track record than MS? Damn right it does. We've had fewer problems, and I think there are more people out there standing up for what's right anyway. Less PR people deathly afraid of rocking the boat. Better technology, and fewer horrid design mistakes.
