Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: usplash
Is "usplash" responsible for the splash screen on the live CD?
I am attempting to clean install Gutsy Tribe 5 on a MacBook Pro, Rev.A,
Core Duo with a Radeon Mobility X1600. There are several problems
starting X on this machine with "gutsy-desktop-i386.iso". For clarity I
will file the bugs separately.
When any mode other than "VGA" is selected on the initial install screen
(using F4), the display never shows the splash screen. The display
immediately goes dark (not even a flickering cursor in the upper left
corner) and the console can not be accessed with Ctrl+Alt+(Fn+F1).
The same problem also occurs when attempting to boot with the "Safe
Video" option.
** Affects: usplash (Ubuntu)
