What about the silent screen does it also look unclear or just the verbose screen. I don't have any artifacts here and the picture is clear, even with the connected TV where i only get 1024x768. I think I can't help you any further here. Maybe you could contact the maintainer of uvesafb, splashutils (spock@gentoo.org). Probably he could help you, although he seems busy with other things at the moment. Regards, Daniel -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
