Thank you for implementing this. If you send a patch, I can test on real hardware.

Patch attached. I replied here rather than with a new email with a PATCH subject because I don't consider it ready to merge, more like a POC.
Also I'm using gmail, hope I don't embarrass myself.
Unfortunately, Gmail wraps lines after 72(?) characters so the diff is malformed. Maybe attach the file generated by `git format-patch -1`?
My apologies. Attached here.
No problems. Thank you for providing the patch. I tried it on the ASUS F2A85-M PRO, and the GIF you provided [1], and got the results below.

According to `videoinfo` from GRUB (MBR), the video modes from the Video BIOS/VGA Option ROM seem to be:

So no 640 x 480 x 24 mode is in there. I never tried bootsplash before, so no idea, if misconfigured something, or just need a different GIF.
Kind regards,
Paul
