I tried the Sept 25 daily image and had the same experience as Chris - plain white Ubuntu logo, then text prompt, and after hitting enter:

Ubuntu karmic (development branch) ubuntu tty1

ubuntu login:

I have tried the September 24 snapshot per Robbie Williamson's request. It does make a difference but not in the way I would like to see. The splash screen is now black with the Ubuntu logo (circle only) showing in white in the centre of the screen. After about 15 seconds the screen changes to just a binking underscore on a black background. If I hit the enter key at that point I get a console with 'Ubuntu login:' as prompt.

Can you let me know the number of the original bug report if you want to continue to receive comments there?
