Comment 9 for bug 102378

 From reading the other bug, somethings on my system :-

 1. there is a vga=0x0305 in both the kernels
 2. there is no /etc/usplash.cfg :(
 3. apt-cache show usplash shows 0.4-44 version

   Ok, the usplash is the progress bar when the user turns on & off his system right,
  I do not get tht, my only indication is the hdd lights to know tht something is going on
when the system is being turned on, and wait till there is no activity on the HDD LED
to know the system has halted :(
