Support for framebuffer devices VESA VGA graphics support VGA text console Video mode selection support Framebuffer console support Select compiled in fonts VGA 8x8 font VGA 8x16 font
I said "N" to all framebuffer device drivers except VESA.
I also added a "video" boot option to the kernel. My grub menu.lst kernel entry is now:
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.7-win4lin root=/dev/hda1 ro hdc=scsi video=vesa:ywrap,mtrr vga=0x317
I got the video options from gentoo documentation. Hope this helps anyone else having the same problem.

Did you find any solution to this problem? I have recompiled my kernel 4 times now with various configurations to try and get the framebuffer working, but I always get a blank screen.
I lost my framebuffer on 2.6 upgrade. I imported a 2.4.21 kernel with framebuffer support so it was odd that it quit working. In my case the solution was simple -- I somehow had not configured VGA_CONSOLE, VIDEO_SELECT and FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE.
