Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

When using "nomodeset" and "vga=788" in the boot parameters, the machine hang at
"fb: conflicting fb hw usage inteldrmfb vs VESA VGA - removing generic driver"
on a machine with Intel VGA card.
This happens no matter it's 686-pae kernel, or i486 one.
Since the Intel VGA card in very common, please consider to make framebuffer 
work for KMS disabled.
How to reproduce this:
1. Create a Debian live based on Sid:
   http://live-build.debian.net/cgi-bin/live-build
2. Burn the created iso on a CD, then boot it on a machine with Intel VGA card
3. In the 1st boot menu of isolinux, press "Tab" key to modify the boot 
parameters. Just append "nomodeset vga=788", then press enter to continue boot
4. The above error will shown, and it just hangs there.
