After asking the maintainer of usplash, creating a postinst script based
on xrandr does not make sense, also ddcprobe does not make sense since X
might be running. The real fix for that bug would be the same as bug
158048, usplash should ddcprobe the right resolution automatically at
each boot.

** Changed in: usplash (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Triaged

** Summary changed:

- [hardy]640x480 usplash on a 1024x768 LCD laptop
+ [hardy]640x480 usplash on all computers

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: usplash
  
  Hardy Alpha 4, on a Compaq Presario 701EA laptop with Savage TwisterK 
graphics and a 1024x768 LCD.
  The usplash graphics are rough/coarse/grainy, because /etc/usplash.conf 
contains 640x480. After modifying /etc/usplash.conf to have 1024x768, it looks 
smooth and slick.
  
- Still exist in Hardy alpha 6
+ update : This bug is caused by the postinst file of usplash which
+ creates configurations files based on the debconf values of X, which
+ does not exist anymore in Hardy because of xrandr 1.3. Usplash would
+ need to automatically detect good resolution or to find another way to
+ gather needed informations to create a valid /etc/usplash.conf than
+ debconf variables from X.
