Into the kernel, not as a module.
Wow! It works! It not the same mode as in XFree (fb is moved lower by one line), but it is working! I don't think if I've met CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE earlier in 2.6.x. Also method of selecing videomode (vesa:xxx stuff, not plain resolution and bpp) seems strange and alien, but it works with your patch. When mergin with mainline is planned?
