Most other distros ship with graphical console enabled so I assumed Debian would as well. Booting with vesa=791 and a kernel that has g-console disabled gives pretty much the same result you are reporting. Or did you specify one of the graphic card-specific fb drivers.. ati, matrox, etc... instead of vesafb..? In this event is the driver built into the kernel or is it built as a module..? Another possibility is that the 2.6 version of the driver does not support your graphic card.. or not at the particular resolution you requested..? For one, I am stuck w/ a 2.4 kernel because the ati driver does not support my old mach64 at 1400x1050 as yet.. But then for all I know you're booting into plain old vga.. and the above is irrelevant..? I've played with frame buffer consoles fairly recently, so if you provide more details there's always an outside chance that I - or someone else.. may come up with a bright idea..
