A major part of this bug was solved by disabling the viafb framebuffer
driver - this was done by blacklisting viafb in /etc/modprobe.d
/blacklist-framebuffer.conf (thanks to a suggestion by Ian Clark for bug
#538893 regarding another system with a UniChrome display) - on the next
update, the initrd was rebuilt.

The good news is that the split-screen problem ceased.

The bad news is that I can't still switch into consoles with ctl-alt-F1
through F6 - but instead of getting blank, black, screen, the resulting
screen is multicolored. The patterns vary each time I try to switch into
a console. This occurred before, as reported above in comments 31, 44,
46, 64, 66, and 82.
