Comment 34 for bug 55159

  One other thing: My LUKS partition mounts on /home-fstab then -o bind mounts folders TMP and VAR_TMP within it as /var and /var/tmp .

  Also, usplash in general I've found to be buggy. I've made two different splash screens (one in hardy and one in Jaunty) work fine, but what version are you using?
I would not be suprised if the original script works in some configurations, mine in others, both in a few-and neither in a few.

 This is one of the real headaches in software development-compatability in all possible configurations, I've only tested four with this.
