I just found out splash screen would disappear on pressing Esc button. Think some prompt message about it should be displayed on splash screen.

Aren't supposed to press enter to have the computer switch off? This doesn't work?

However there may be issues with the font in the console.

Pressing Enter is not supposed and does not shutdown PC. It's just removing shutdown splash screen.

I reproduced the issue in VirtualBox. Running from CD, if you don't press Enter after having removed (or not) the CD, the computer switches to console mode after few minutes. For an unknown reason the font is not correct and the message is not readable. I checked that, when DDL is running, the console font is correctly set and can display Russian messages. Therefore it seems the font setting is changed before shutting down.

Strangely I also saw the case where the screen switches to console but the Russian text is correctly displayed. I still haven't any explanation of course…

Won't be solved for the official release. We'll see if moving to Squeeze solves the issue or not.

Moving this ticket to 2011-11 since we still haven't any boot splash application in Squeeze.
