There is nothing wrong with fbset on rivafb. It's the same problem I'm having
with radeonfb. Swaping between text->gfx on the primary monitor mess up the chip
registers of the secondary card. In this case the PLL reads zero after the VT
swap and that causes the divide by zero.

This has got to be some problem in fb since I am sure my X does not have an
Nvidia driver loaded.

Now I'm really going to bed.

I'll debug this more in the morning. I tried swapping a Geforce2 for my Radeon
just to see if I got the same failure. I can't tell since every mode I tried
setting on the Geforce2 faults the drivers.
