I had the same problem as the original poster on an AMD64. Since a
recent update, however, I don't have a splash screen at all anymore. The
screen remains dark (with a blinking cursor in the top left corner)
during startup and shutdown of the computer. Everything works fine, just
the splash does

I assume this is with feisty, as I have the same issue on feisty.
Yes, this is on feisty indeed, sorry for not mentioning it before. It is
a Herd 1 installation, kept up-to-date with apt-get.

I can confirm this.
I have tried the same stuff on 2 identical HP xw8400 workstations with nvidia
quadro graphics.
One I installed using i386 and the other using amd64.
The i386 one worked correctly but not the amd64. And I have reinstalled on both
machines and switched i386/amd64 and I would
Just read the release notes for 6.10:
All the improvements in usplash have begun to pay off, as the new theme
landed. The usplash will now scale to larger screens and many different
resolutions.
Nice improvements.

It is fine on i386 though,
I just saw this on my AMD64 machine with ATI video card. Using the
Feisty Fawn Herd 2 amd64 desktop cd. The scrolling bar also appears
slightly off-center as well as black and white, but that could be
because my LCD monitor didn't properly adjust to the resolution change.

Here's the text of the solution mentioned in the forums:
Re: Black and White splash/loading screen
The problem seems to be with usplash showing the wrong resolution. It always
seems to pick the first one in the list, which is 640x400. This is the only
resolution which seems to show up black

The same problem occurs on a machine with Intel G965 integrated
graphics. The crudely patched usplash-theme-ubuntu.c posted by cdenley
at http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=304673page=2 fixes it
for me.
I can't believe the priority for this has been set at low. First
impressions count,
Same problem here, amd64. It seems that this bug has received low
priority. I don't understand why, it seems like a quick fix, or am i
wrong?

Same problem here (64bit edgy) - with GF 6600GT card. I had 32-bit edgy
before (with exactly the same hardware) and usplash worked fine.

I don't really know C, but I was playing around with it a little bit. It
seems like it shows the 640x400 splash screen, and that is the only
resolution that appears black and white. Usplash just takes the first
resolution in the list. I took all the resolutions out of usplash-theme-
ubuntu.c
@cdenley
That doesn't work for me, I get no usplash at all at startup if I
compile usplash-theme-ubuntu with your file.

Did you have to add 'vga=0x318' to the kernel line in menu.lst? I
haven't tried this myself yet, though I will when I get home but that
may explain the non-appearance of a splash screen if only the 1024x768
one if defined.

I set that on the defoptions line in menu.lst:

When I add vga=0x318 to my menu.lst the splash works properly but now
the terminals you can access with CTRL+ALT+F1 - F6 are broken, they
only show some random white lines all over the screen.

It's a limitation of the platform. IIRC, only the first 16 colour
palette entries are getting set.

Is this really a platform limitation -- why is amd64 not able to display
it in colour when x86 can? As others have said, it's not just the
colour; some of us have it squashed up into the top left corner and
lacking the progress bar.

yeah this is something that should be fixed straight away, ubuntu edgy
64 is not ready for the world until this is fixed - you may laugh and
say this is not important, and you may set the priority way down on this
bug...
but this is the first thing of ubuntu you see when you boot, would
windows
I'm in complete agreement that the priority should be upgraded. Granted
that I rarely power off my machine and therefore don't see it that often
it does nevertheless take away from the wow factor of ubuntu being sexy.
It's actually one of the reason's I installed x86 on my parents AMD 64
