This finally makes my framebuffer stuff work and now I HAVE SEEN THE PENGUIN! Hurray! (What's the big deal anyway?). In other words, it cures the problem I mentioned some hours ago.
With vesafb, however, I have no scroll back at all. Also, I actually think it is so slow that I am just going to keep on using vgacon. It also seems to use a lot less memory. Is there any real reason to use the framebuffer when vgacon is working fine?
