Package: usplash-theme-debian
Version: 4
Severity: important
The usplash theme starts working for about 2-5 seconds. After that, the
animation on the debian text first stops moving, the picture gets a
littel distorted as well, then the splash theme disappears. After that
booting continues on text console like without any splash theme set.
Last boot messages shown on the splash theme are:
waiting for /dev to be fully populated
starting ALSA card 1
starting ALS card 0
The theme perfectly works on shutdown, though.
If i add vga=xxx on the grub boot line, the splash theme breaks at the
same point. After that, no text console is shown. The screen just shows
some bumping green squares. This happens, no matter what screen
resolution is set in the vga parameter. Adding "splash" on the boot line
doesn't help either.
My system is a IBM R32 laptop. Graphics card is (lspci output):
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M6 LY

Hello,
Thanks for your interest in improving Debian, and sorry that the bugs
were not fully resolved in due time.
usplash-theme-debian has been removed from unstable [1] a couple of
years ago and only present in oldstable by now [2], same for usplash
[3].

http://packages.qa.debian.org/u/usplash-theme-debian/news/20100927T143534Z.html
[2] http://packages.qa.debian.org/u/usplash-theme-debian.html
[3] http://packages.qa.debian.org/u/usplash.html
The bugs are now orphan (without maintainer assigned) so they probably
will not be noticed/modified further. So I think that the best
solution is to close them now, doing it. Please comment if you want
to handle the reports in some other way (reassigned to other packages,
etc.).
Cheers.
