This is caused by plymouth (the graphical splash). A workaround is
available in bug #532047.

The incorrect layout is, I think, also caused by plymouth because it
falls back to a text splash if KMS isn't available, and some of the
linux terminal control-codes it is writing to tty7 are failing/causing
unexpected results.
