Bug#289810: same fix as in 2.6.9
This bug is exactly the same as bug 282234 in 2.6.9, and it has the
same fix. You need to edit drivers/video/vesafb.c and move line 480
(which reads "module_init(vesafb_init);") outside of the #ifdef
MODULE. I move it up to line 474 and everything works just
fine. Perhaps the debian patch can be fixed so it no longer moves this
line into the ifdef? (it's not in the pristine sources)
Many thanks,

In 1997 a group of programmers started writing a desktop environment
to fix a travesty they didn't create. Their program promptly found
its way onto un*x systems everywhere. Today, still opposed by a
software monopolist, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you share
their vision, if you know you can help, and if you can connect to
internet, maybe you can join... the K-Team.
