After some research on launchpad, it seems more likely to be a bug in
Plymouth than in xserver-xorg-video-openchrome. Moreover, I've
completely removed Xorg and I still can't log in on a TTY

** Package changed: xserver-xorg-video-openchrome (Ubuntu) => plymouth
(Ubuntu)

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-openchrome
  
  I have upgraded my Xubuntu karmic installation to lucid to test the
  alpha release of lucid. After the upgrade, which went smoothly, I
  rebooted the machine. I expected to see the GDM login screen eventually,
  but all I got was a completely black screen. Even the backlight of the
  LCD panel of my laptop was off. Pressing the (CTRL+)ALT+Fx key
  combinations did not (visibly) result in a change to the virtual
  terminal that corresponds to the F-key pressed.
  
  When I rebooted to use the recovery mode/single mode, I found that I
  couldn't get a text console even then. I was able to log in via SSH,
  which works perfectly and allowed me to run apport-cli from this
  machine. Furthermore, I could get a full graphical desktop by using
  vnc4server on this laptop and a vnc viewer on another machine, which
  confirms that the install is basically working. Therefore, I'm guessing
  that it has to do with the X server or driver, also because I've had
  some graphics-related trouble with this particular chipset that is
  inside my laptop before (VIA KM400).Still, it also might be due to this
  new boot splash method ubuntu is apparently using, but I'm not sure.
+ (EDIT: changed 'Affects' to plymouth package. Have removed Xorg but
+ still no TTYs)
