And the battle goes on :)

It really fixes my VGA problems so far, but I guess the bug is somewhere
else.
We use a patch to display the kernel version above the framebuffer logo.
It works on intel and on sparc, but it gives the usual garbage for the
version chars on ppc.

It uses the fbcon_putcs() function. I will see how it works without that
vga patch.
