[Bug 129910] Re: Blank ttys when using vesafb (vga=xxx)

Im running Ubuntu hardy on a Dell m1330.

Textmode boot works with vga=865 in grub.

However, after i login with gdm and Ctrl-Alt-F1-6 to a tty they only
have a blinking cursor and nothing else.

I have commented the blacklisted vesafb in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-framebuffer and added the modules fbcon & vesafb into 
 /etc/initramfs-tools/modules 

any ideas?
