Just upgraded to Ubuntu 9.10 and now I get the following message on
every start up when my system didnt shutdown cleanly before.

File System Checks Are in Progress:
/home(/dev/sdb3) ...%
Press ESC to Cancel Checks

Sometimes, after the Escape was pressed, the system wont start up
properly and the login screen wont appear also.

It was a blinking row that described the percentage progress bar. Since
it looked funny visually, I tried to remove the splash image (from boot
options at boot time), and wow, it worked. No more file system checks
afterwards (not the unnecessary ones)

I believe there is some connection of this with the splash image.
