I tried building and using rc3b and rc3c, but neither worked for me.  
Are you sure this fixes the problem?

If there's a vga=whatever option that someone knows (I've tried
"vga=normal" and "vga=extended" and neither work) or a video= option,
please let the group know (there are a few of us suffering with this
FC3/Axel's RPMs/Jarod's Guide nightmare with ivtv/ivtv-fb.

Thanks,

--Matt
