Tried with 2.4.18 - seems to be the most recent kernel w/ woody (?) -same difference.. Then I took a look at the .config file in /boot andsure enough the VESA VGA option is unchecked. So the woody kernelsapparently ship with the graphical console disabled. I googled a bitmore and found a couple of posts that seem to confirm my findings. Well,I'll just have to install a kernel from source and that should do it.
