[Bug 391215] Re: vga=791 kernel line option breaks tty consoles

 

It seems that Lucid have chosen vga16fb per default. vga16fb doesn't
support the vga= parameter and ends in broken tty consoles.

So I exchanged vga16fb with vesafb. 
I added vga16fb to the blacklist (/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-framebuffer.conf) and removed vesafb from it.

Furthermore I added fbcon and vesafb to /etc/modules. (I'm not sure if
it runs without this modification.)
