  I don't want to disable KMS, I want to disable framebuffer, and I
simply cannot do so with the i915 driver enabled... period. end of
story.  It is automatically enable in make menuconfig.  The option is
"-*-" rather than [*].

  I've tried "nofb" in the lilo append line, and manually unsetting all
the FB_CONFIG* parameters in .config with vim and rebuilding, but it
still comes up in framebuffer mode.  I'll have to wait for the next
kernel updates, I suppose.  I don't want to play with ~x86.
