Are you sure this is solely a usplash issue? I can reproduce it even when booting with nofb and without the splash option by simply doing:
(1) boot into a kernel with "nofb" (splash, quiet disabled) (2) switch to the console (alt-f1) and login (3) setfont /usr/share/consolefonts/Arabic-Fixed15.psf.gz (4) showconsolefont (5) setterm -blank 1 and then wait 1 minute, as not all of the screen blanks. I have reproduced this behavior on hardy, intrepid, and karmic's 2.6.30 and 2.6.31 kernels. ** Changed in: usplash (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: usplash (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- some console colors cannot be modified https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/395374 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
