(Get the code!)
From my other report:
Usplash shows at 1024x768 when my monitor is 1280x1024 = incorrect proportion
This means that everything is of the wrong proportions, as 1024x768 is 4:3 and 1280x1024 is 5:4. The circular Ubuntu logo looks squashed like an egg.
This is not a problem on my other system, which up until yesterday was running the same version.
My hardware: ATI Radeon 9800 Pro (R350) + Iiyama ProLite E431S (DVI)
Working hardware: ATI Radeon 9000 Pro + Iiyama (can't remember specific model, can check later if needed) (DVI)
So both configurations are in DVI. Can someone help me debug this so we can get this fixed and polished up?

I'll take a look at the usplash configuration on the "correct" system. Mine is set to 1024x768 with no vga kernel option, and it seems that it is actually working.
Maybe the framebuffer drivers for the two cards behave differently when asked to put a 1024x768 FB on a 1280x1024 screen... Though in X, the display is stretched to fit so I don't know.
