I tried using the framebuffer console with matroxfb on a 2.6 kernel and
I see only reddish pattern on the screen. I do not get any letters.
However, I can run X with UseFBdev option and a directfb program.
I can also use the fbcons on an iMac with atifb.
Tested with 2.6.7, with 2.6.8.1 I still do not get usable fbcons.
THe hardware is G400 and G550.

Your .config ?  You either did not build fbcon to the kernel or
you are using modular matroxfb.  You cannot do that.
