I tried what MOM2007 recommended without success, and with my i845G with 
removed usplash wound up with:
/etc/initramfs-tools/modules:

fbcon
intelfb
vesafb

/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-framebuffer
...
# blacklist i810fb
# blacklist intelfb
# blacklist vesafb
# blacklist vga16fb

No success, but I see in 
/lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/kernel/drivers/video/console only fbcon, no 
intelfb, no i810fb & no vga16fb, (but ../intelfb/intelfb.ko does exist - why 
there?) even though in /boot/config-23.6.22-14-generic:
...
CONFIG_FB=y
CONFIG_FB_VESA=m
CONFIG_FB_VGA16=m
CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE=m
CONFIG_FB_I810=m
CONFIG_FB_INTEL=m...

As expected after not finding those .ko files, lsmod finds neither
vesafb nor i810fb, nor vga16fb, but only fbcon, and not even intelfb.
Why didn't intelfb load? Why are there no .ko files for the rest?

I tried reducing /etc/initramfs-tools/modules to only intelfb, also
without success. Even after update-initramfs -u that way intelfb fails
to load on boot, and modprobe intelfb produces no apparent effect.
