Other than that: In Sarge I could add vga=791 to the boot parameters and get fbcon. That no longer works: vga=791 now gets a blank screen. Anybody used the Etch Installer and gotten into fn mode?:-( sorry for the typo: framebuffer mode, that is.
Too bad. I copied the lilo parameters for vesafb-tng from here: http://dev.gentoo.org/~spock/projects/vesafb-tng/ and those are incompatible with the vga= parameter. So vga=791 *does* work. H
