Moderator Linux-Dude Posts: 1187 Registered: 2006-11-23 | Before gdm gets loaded you'll see a cross-mouse-pointer on top on a wite screen with a lot of black dots.
This will be displayed in normal hdd installation for around 2 seconds.
During livecd mode it takes around 10 sec.
Mostly for flatpanel screens this isn't good.
In other distros the white screen with black dots has a standard color like blue.
Is there a way to fix this? |

/usr/bin/X
Code | [In neuem Fenster öffnen] | | if [ "$USE_XGL" = "TRUE" ]
then
exec /usr/bin/Xgl $XGL_OPTS "$@" -br
else
exec /usr/bin/Xorg "$@" -br
fi |
The -br switch changes the blackscreen with white dots to a full blackscreen.
Now my flatpanel dont get hurt every xstart
Hope it will be added to the xscript soon. |
