Update: I did a fresh install of Xubuntu 7.10 from live cd and had the
same problem, with the same solution.
Speaking of solutions. Here is a detailed set of instructions.
Edit /etc/init.d/gdm using your favorite text editor (backup first!).
Now between the lines:
stop)
log_begin_msg "Stopping GNOME Display Manager..."
add the following:
stop)
usplash_down
log_begin_msg "Stopping GNOME Display Manager..."
Then save. Now the splash screen should start immediatelly after gnome
shuts down.
