This throws an oops on my IBM Thinkpad T23 notebook. Some parts scroll
off the screen, but the visible stack trace goes like this:

We'd really need to see that trace, please.  netconsole is worth setting
up, if you have another machine on the LAN.

Well, I've learned that built-in framebuffers initialize _before_ the
network stack is up, so that didn't help. Rebuilding savagefb as a
module gave me:

Hope this helps,

Does, thanks.  I guess adapter->algo_data is NULL.

savagefb-use-generic-ddc-reading.patch, perhaps...
