For me it's been enough to remove the vga=xxx option to restore the full
functionality of the ttys.

I've got an Acer Aspire 5680 laptop, with NVIDIA GeForce Go 7600SE graphics
card and Ubuntu Gutsy Desktop x86.

BTW, the vga=xxx option is set easily by the StartUp-Manager, who I think
was the first to set the vga option. It was not preinstalled by default in
Ubuntu, I installed it a little after the installation from the
repositories: that's why at the beginning my ttys worked, and then no more.
