Comment 7 for bug 152726

The usplash.conf fix worked wonders on my Toshiba Satellite 1900-101 notebook with Kubuntu Gutsy where the splashscreen was not visible and bootup was a 4 minute crawl. In usplash.conf the set resolution was 1280x1024 while the notebook's native resolution is 1024x768.

Maybe updating the initrd fs is not even necessary because I could already see the shutdown splash screen as soon as I had edited usplash.conf and restarted.

I think the bootsplash resolution should default to something (nearly) every screen can reproduce - like 640x480.
