Yes, I've seen the same thing recently.  I changed out my graphics card
recently (It's now an Matrox g400) and I thought it was THAT, but now
that you mention it, that card worked fine with 2.6.2.

I don't know how to fix it (I don't use the console much on that box), I
wish I had more help for you.
