Public bug reported:
usplash version: 0.4-13 (edgy)
When I boot using the "splash" boot parameter, some funny drawings with
color pattern tests appear, and then the screen gets blank and I the
video doesn't work anymore. I am not sure, but I think it gets dark when
gdm is about to be loaded.
The machine is clearly still functional, since I can even reboot using
ctrl+alt+del and the num lock led is responsive for every virtual
console.
It is always reproducible.
If I remove the "splash" parameter, everything works fine.
