That's really bad news.
This revert damages second stage for non-Latin users.

How about 51framebuffer-module-linux-i386 checks LANG also?

A. use fb for all except of some LANG
B. use fb for some LANG

I prefer A.

Or more drastic, how about using bterm (or jfbterm) for all languages
on second stage?
