Bug Description

Binary package hint: usplash

Hi all,
        The usplash does not work at 1 MB. The VRAM needs to be something around 8 MB for it to work. I had been having the issue for last several years with usplash & realized today its a VRAM issue. Thanx for your time.

I confirm this for VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82865G Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
Changing the BIOS to use 8 MB instead of 1 MB fixes the missing usplash screen.

This bug seems to explain why all Intel integrated graphics does not work. Can you reproduce this bug with another graphic card than an Intel one?
