In attempt to provide useful information, I downloaded both daily-live versions (amd64 and i386) 2008-02-24 of Hardy desktop and ran the following commands to obtain the information in this attachment and the next:

# sudo strace -o usplash-strace.i386 usplash -c
# sudo strace -o usplash-strace.amd64 usplash -c

I used tty1. the i386 version works, amd64 doesn't (as you already know). There are interesting differences in the output for each version, but I have a bit more learning to do before I can understand it in full.

The hardware platform this was produced on is a core2 duo with nVidia 8400M GS.

HTH,
