This is from current 2.6.6-rc2+BK:

*** Warning: "vgacon_remap_base" [drivers/video/vga16fb.ko] undefined!

Do we need to export vgacon_remap_base?

Yes. It's been a while ago I tried, but vga16fb used to work on the S3 in my
LongTrail after I initialized that card using the video BIOS emulator.

This patch makes it not complain. Can't test because current 2.6 does
not boot on my PReP Powerstack.
