Public bug reported:

I normally have my grub.cfg set up so that I see the kernel messages
during the boot process. Since Ubuntu has upgraded to the 3.0.x Kernel,
this no longer works; instead, once the Grub menu has disappeared, all I
see until X has started is a very disconcerting blank screen.

Booting 2.6.38-11 from the same Grub menu DOES show me the kernel
messages.

Ideally, 3.0.x kernels should respect the splash=verbose directive. But
even if not, at least SOME indication of progress should be show.
