Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: usplash

When I start up my computer and switch to tty1 while the nice new usplash 
software is running, I seem to get a lot of debugging info from usplash. This 
litters the screen and continues to be seen even after usplash has finished its 
animation, and when you're trying to log in (which is sometimes confusing, as 
the login text is obscured by the debugging information). A small excerpt from 
the information:
--
usplash: Using mode 800x600
Calling INT 0x1A (F000:FE6E)
 EAX is 0xB102
Calling INT 0x1A (F000:FE6E)
 EAX is 0xB10A
--
It would be great if this info could be not sent at all, or sent into the bit 
bucket instead of to the screen, at least for those (few?) who sometimes prefer 
logging into text-only mode.

** Affects: usplash (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
