Comment 4 for bug 448977

This was not fixed right in usplash 0.5.44.
Whilst usplash is running, switching to any of the virtual terminals will result in the same garbled screen with flashing colors.
Once X starts, you can switch to virtual terminal 1 (F1) and it works correctly, but the rest are corrupted. (A screen with white blocks filling the screen.)
What's more, when going back to X from a virtual terminal screen, it sometimes corrupts the screen in X. (an example is the top bar of gnome turns completely white. It is still clickable, but it doesn't refresh.) This may be a problem unrelated to usplash, but the rest is not. I am marking as confirmed again.
