Comment 33 for bug 430654

Moreover, there's a thread on ubuntuforums:

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1267658&page=3

You can see on the first post on that third page of the thread a sarcastic comment "The error is nice for bootscreen", clearly implying no usplash after the udev upgrade. Similar to the original poster's comment (first post in thread): "I now see some crazy boot messages that delay or keep xsplash from working"

Certainly, I'm not the only one out there with usplash-stopped-working-due-to-udev-warnings problem :)
