Do you have the logo framebuffer working? I can't seem to get the
correct combination to get mode vga=792 working so I can have my BIG
text console.

I'm also getting a module(s) loading error ... modprobe reports that
"version magic 2.6.0 386 gcc-3.2 should be 2.6.0 SMP 386 gcc-3.2", or
at least a message similar to that.

Any pointers? Thanks in advance!
