Bug Description
Binary package hint: usplash
After the latest upgrades of usplash and console-setup, I can't get gdm to start anymore and I'm also unable to switch to any ttys after usplash has finished. All I get is a blank screen.
If I remove splash from the boot parameters, the system starts fine.

kernel 2.6.20-5-generic

I have that very same as well.
My computer is a Thinkpad T42 with a radeon mobility 7500 gfx.
I load the radeonfb (to avoid power loss when suspending to ram) module (put radeonfb in /etc/initramfs/ modules and run update-initramfs)
same package versions as above.
