Wow! Thankies for the piece of code, Nathan
ARM is so great...

The picture shows off the extensibility of our "splash screen" - there's a lot you can do. When we implement a proper framebuffer class which provides optimised blits and shape drawing it'll be able to do even more.

It has nothing to do with the bootloader(which is grub, btw)... It's simply a kernel module, showing the progress of module loading. If my "image support" you mean video mode, we have a VBE driver .Benjamin1996 wrote:Ahhhh, I see.. anyway, good job .

Alrighty then . In that case: Nice VBE driver. I once tried to make one, but it could never do such image like things, so that's why I thought it was an image .It has nothing to do with the bootloader(which is grub, btw)...

Technical background: the actual mode switch is performed using x86emu and your standard int 10h calls - everything else is just generic framebuffer operations.Alrighty then .
