Compaq Presario v5015us Gutsy fixed by changing resolution in usplash.conf and updating initramfs.
changed /etc/usplash.conf (yres had been set to 1024):
# Usplash configuration file xres=1280 yres=800
Ran update-initramfs:
sudo update-initramfs -c -k all
Please note that when I changed resolution in usplash.conf and rebooted it still did not work. I had to update-initramfs to resolve.
