Binary package hint: plymouth

With yesterdays (15.04.2010) updates the file /etc/modprobe.d/radeon-kms.conf was removed.
Sideeffect of this removal was:
- before this update I had no plymouth at all but some "ASCII-art" which looked like what should look like a plymouth boot screen. As far as I know this was intended for video-adapters with <32MB video-ram.
- after yesterdays removal of radeon-kms.conf it looks like I have working plymouth boot screen but at start up it looked somewhat garbled (see attached photo). However... after some time of booting the screen "normalizes" and looks like how plymouth should look. Some time means some seconds before I can see gdm.

My Notebook is an IBM X31 with a radeon 7000/ M6 LY graphics adapter with 16MB of video-ram.
The X31 runs Lucid Beta 2 with all updates.
