Hi,

Hi to everyone.
I have a general question: my need is to use u-boot to initialize a PowerPC 5123 and then to continue with a custom kernel without Linux. The problem is that during initialization I must drive very early a graphical controller by PCI to show some logos and I need of mathematical library;
What kind of logo display requires math? You're going to display a bitmap probably, so the only math involved would be integer arithmetic, I think. And if you have a logo in vector form, then you can convert it to bitmap (adapted to your FB format) offline and link the bitmap from, not the vector, in u-boot.
Check the splashscreen support already in place (CONFIG_CMD_BMP). It supports BMPs.
Cheers Detlev
