Well, after a lot of playing arround with fbset, recompiling the kernel, passing the kernel boot options and the like, I haven't fixed this yet, and I intend to file a bug report about it, the question is: against which package should I do it? Suggestions anyone? Should it be the kernel or something else? Do mind that it has nothing to do with X Window, since the problem begins during the bootup process.
