I have an early 4500 that I sent back because the screen flickered, the unit was fixed, but now when I start the unit, the screen shows the splash screen of Rob's airplane, but then it kinda does a funny fade deal then suddenly it's processing it's init scripts.

Is this normal? Seems like the time between when the kernel boots and the frame buffer driver loads it just kinda processes noise.

Also, where is the screen with the analog gages? I really want that screen for the guy that is going to maiden my airplane because he is a very good pilot, but not really up on any of this glass stuff.

Thanks,
schu

Hello Schu, that screen is normal during boot. Some time ago we removed the analog engine screen from the page list. It was not well liked by our customer base so we decided to get rid of it when we rewrote the software code for the new system.
