Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-vesa

The vesa driver doesn't interact well with KMS; on my laptop, when
nouveau-kms is active, vesa causes "blooming" on the internal LVDS
display when it tries to reprogram it.

It should be fairly simple for vesa to detect kms and fail to load in
that case, in which case the fbdev driver should take over.
