Hm. Strange. It should work. Can you get serial console working? 
Forgot to mention, I've seen message:
	fbcon_setup: No support for fontwidth 8
in /var/log/dmesg. 

I found this printk() in fbcon_setup(), but i can't even imagine 
why it happens.
Perfect. I found the problem and I'm about to commit to BK. I posted the 
latest patch against 2.5.49 at

I understand this situation perfectly, looks like it's almost common for
developers working in "not so importatnt for servers" subsystems :(
:-( Some day that attitude will change.

P.S

    Several drivers have been ported but not all. NVIDIA is still broken 
but I will fix it tonight.
