The usplash graphics are rough/coarse/grainy, because /etc/usplash.conf contains 640x480. After modifying /etc/usplash.conf to have 1024x768, it looks smooth and slick.

After modifying /etc/usplash.conf to have 1024x768, it looks smooth and slick. update : This bug is caused by the postinst file of usplash which creates configurations files based on the debconf values of X, which does not exist anymore in Hardy because of xrandr 1.3. Usplash would need to automatically detect good resolution or to find another way to gather needed informations to create a valid /etc/usplash.conf than debconf variables from X.

Usplash would need to automatically detect good resolution. However, this will not be possible for Hardy so the only partial/temporary fix is to use ubiquity to generate good usplash.conf. This will only fix the problem for LiveCDs.
