This bug was fixed in the package initramfs-tools - 0.92bubuntu50
---------------
initramfs-tools (0.92bubuntu50) karmic; urgency=low
LP: #392039, #431812.
* hooks/framebuffer:
- rename from hooks/kernelextras, this is much more descriptive and
actually matches the associated script
- copy kernel-mode-setting drivers (drivers/gpu) into the initramfs
- include the vesafb driver, which we previously relied on being in
the special initrd directory
- don't force load fbcon
- don't force load things from the initrd directory
* scripts/init-top/framebuffer:
- add udev as a pre-requisite
- remove mknods since udev will make those now
- remove intel_agp and i915 code
- don't unset MODPROBE_OPTIONS, just override for the modprobe call
(since we want video= to override the blacklist)
- if we didn't pick up a framebuffer from vga= or video=, and don't
have one from udev, wait for udev to finish then if we still don't
have one, load vesafb
- settle after loading drivers to ensure the device is ready
* debian/control:
- increase dependency on udev to that which loads fbcon
- add breaks on older usplash to force upgrade
