Bug Description
Binary package hint: kernel-
Specifying video=vesafb as a kernel parameter results in a black screen during boot starting with kernel 2.6.22-13. Worked fine in 2.6.22-12. Not booting in fb mode (ie: removing the argument from the kernel parameters) is a workaround. System is Gutsy Beta, up-to-date as of 2007-10-07.

Using what hardware? With 2.6.22-14 on my Intel 845G, vga= framebuffer modes blank the console screens, but video=vesafb has no apparent effect.
