Hy! I think this bug is something about the blocklisted fb drivers since I don't know what version of ubuntu... before that we used the vga param to get a high resolution terminal, I personally used it to get usplash work on my native 1280x800 resolution (nvidia 8400m, if I simply enter the resolution in /etc/usplash.conf usplash still uses 1024x768).. Since ubuntu blacklisted these drivers, I removed the blacklisting of vesafb, and added fbcon, vesafb to /etc/modules (or something simlar I can't clearly remember) but since karmic, I (and it seems others) can't get that working. On lucid I still have a low res tty console, and plymouth only uses that text console with a blue 1 line progress bar at bottom at boot (with or without the nvidia drivers)... this will change till the release? I need the nouveau packages installed to get it work? (I will test that soon)
