[Bug 57390] Framebuffer does not work on macbook pro

[Jon]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.15-26-686

I cant seem to get a framebuffer to work during boot on my macbook pro.
This means I cant use upower or splashy when booting.

When i set vga=795 the screen basically goes blank until gdm starts. I
am using the 15" version - i have to use lilo not grub to boot because
grub is not supported on my machine.

Just found a patch that should get this working:
