I can confirm this in Tribe 4 live-CD with a nVidia GeForce4 MX 440 AGP 8x graphics card and a Philips 107E monitor, if this helps. Also, the logo neither appears during the shut down process. Instead, the screen image gets deformed.
However, the Ubuntu usplash logo appears if I boot in the default VGA mode.
