Bug Description
Binary package hint: usplash
I'm running 7.10 beta. Basically, on shutdown I get a blank screen. Usplash is fine on boot up. I have tried the workaround of adding vga=791 to the end of the line for my kernel (2.6.22-14 generic) which is a method which has worked since 7.04. I have an Acer aspire 3003 laptop with an integrated SiS chip. Usplash was always fine in Edgy, faulty but fixable in Feisty and looks completely broken in Gutsy for my laptop.
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 661/741/760 PCI/AGP or 662/761Gx PCIE VGA Display Adapter [1039:6330] (prog-if 00 [VGA])

Thanks for your bug report and for your contribution to ubuntu. The first thing you should know about usplash in Gutsy is that most of time, people get a bad configuration because of the ubiquity installer. In order to know if your issue is caused by this problem, can you follow these instructions and tell if it fixes your problem?
1. Go to your System / Administration / Screen and Graphic menu and look at your actual screen resolution.
2. Type this in a terminal : gksu gedit /etc/usplash.conf
3. Modify the xres= and yres= lines to have the same resolution as you saw earlier in Screen and Graphic and save the file.
4. Type this in a terminal to save the settings : sudo update-initramfs -u
