Same problem here, with a desktop PC with integrated Intel graphics. Removing 'quiet splash' solves the problem.

I've tried to login from a remote PC with ssh; restarting gdm make login screen reappear but mouse and keyboard are unresponsive. ctrl-alt-bksp (enabled in xorg.conf) and ctrl-alt-(1-6) doesn't work either.
