I originally tried to use the CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_PREPARE functionality. After some frustration, I figured out that without CONFIG_LCD, it is never actually called. http://git.denx.de/?p=u-boot/u-boot-imx.git;a=blob;f=common/stdio.c;h=5d5117c0ed838195a2caad7c28c128247771cd92;hb=HEAD#l216 It does seem odd that there are 2 totally different paths and the other splash screen related macros are used in both but the prepare function is only called in the LCD case. Since we use CONFIG_VIDEO and not CONFIG_LCD, this seemed to be the best, or at least the least invasive, solution. > > What exactly cannot be done wioth the existing features? > > > BTW: it would be nice if you flag board specific code in the Subject:, > and it is considered mandatory to Cc: the respective board maintainer. > I apologize for that.
