Have you tried the monosync/VGA monitor driver ?  I'm really not sure if
the other monitor drivers work.

Also specifying "kgicon_virty=400" may help.

And you've got both "CONFIG_VGA_CONSOLE=y" and "CONFIG_FB_VGA=y" in your
config, so I assume that vgafb (the latter) will win out over vgacon
(the former).  Therefore, are you doing a "con2fbmap 0 1" ?

Cheers,
