Hello Alex,

thanks for the info! I will deselect "savagefb" with the next kernel 
compile and try to use vga=791 instead.

Strange that it worked okay quite some times.

Could they be made compatible? Is work in progress to make them 
compatible? Or are they incompatible by design? In case any betatesters 
are needed, you have one at least ;).

Regards,
