Title:
i915: KMS disabled when vga16fb is loaded with Lucid Kernel
2.6.32-
The value -1 of /sys/module/i915/parameters/modeset does not mean KMS
disabled. The value zero does.
-1 is just the default value of i915_modeset and with defined
CONFIG_DRM_I915_KMS and non-zero i915_modeset, KMS will be enabled.
For the vga16fb, I think it's bug of Plymouth and has been fixed.

I have a ATI X300 and got the same problems.
Now i blacklisted the vga16fb, and the framebuffer and Xorg is working
only the splash-screen is not.

I just tested it on my acer aspire one with 945GSE graphics and indeed
KMS doesn't work unless I blacklist the vga16fb module. Current git
intel only supports KMS mode which leaves me with a failsafe X startup
with a corrupted screen if I try to use 2.6.32-7 since the "UBUNTU:
SAUCE: ensure vga16fb
Hmm, looking at it again KMS does look to be working in your log and the
nouveau thing is a different problem. (sorry about the noise!)
[2.692146] fb0: inteldrmfb frame buffer device <--- the KMS framebuffer
[2.692154] registered panic notifier
[2.692170] [drm] Initialized i915 1.6.0
This is also affecting nouveau which does not work without KMS on my
machines. On the intel side it's especially bad here because UMS support
was removed from newer intel DDX's so X will not start on those
machines.
