what's the incantation for the BW framebuffer of the ELC?

I'm getting a garbled 'logo' on bootup. The Debian logo was fine when tftp'ing 
the 2.2.1 slink kernel.

Also X dies, but the screen I'm seeing seems also to be garbled, like it was 
grayscale instead of
BW.

I'm using  a newly installed potato with the 2.2.15 kernel .  The adequate X 
server is XsunMono
I hope.

Is there anything going awry with the device detection on bootup?
How can I check?
