OK, try this at the command line if you want to test the USplash in 1280x1024
sudo /etc/usplash.conf It should looking something like the following: # Usplash configuration file xres=1024 yres=768 Of course you can try changing it to 1280x1024 respectively, but if it doesn't look like the example I showed, try it at 1024x768 first.
