My Karmic Ubuntu 64-bit system seems to be affected by this one too. For me this happens on every boot. It started on 22 September after the updates. Before that I could always enter xsplash. Now my Karmic never enters xsplash. Instead after the grub I always get usplash, with a new look as from today. I do not have cryptsetup installed. I have tested this with Karmics nv-driver and also with NVidias 185 and 190 drivers. My videocard is GTX285. Now, after usplash the screen stays black. If I hit any key, I can then see tty1 and login the prompt. >From there I can get to xsplash (and gdm and x) by logging in and typing "sudo >restart gdm" or by changing to tty7 (ctrl+alt+F7), when the xsplash and gdm and finally x start automatically. But yes something goes wrong when booting and the system is set to tty1.
