Hi,

after installing 2.6.14.4 I'm no longer able to use my intelfb-console.

.config is exactly the same as with 2.6.14.3, but 2.6.14.4 doesn't
switch to fb at all. Just the normal console appears.

dmesg output:
<snip>
intelfb: Video mode must be programmed at boot time.
<snip>

lilo.conf:
vga=791
image=/boot/2.6.14.4-3
 append="video=intelfb"

I don't know, why it isn't working, since nothing intelfb or fb related
changed in this release.

thanks,
sebastian
