I added the fb stuff (fbset took a while to coax into compiling)
__u32 not defined, etc. I also symlinked in fb0current, fb1current...
fb4current
to fb0, fb1...fb4.

Now it hangs on insertion. Unlike previously I can't switch terminals,
keyboard's dead. Ideas? I have not tried "VGAFB" whatever that is.
Where are the docs on how to try that?

Also that kgicon_virty=400 is a compile option or a module insertion
option?

Thanks,

Sengan
