Given that you have uvesafb configured, I'm surprised to see that you
don't have anything in /proc/fb.  I wouldn't expect this to change as a
result of booting in recovery mode, since I don't think uvesafb is a KMS
driver and is therefore unaffected by the 'nomodeset' boot option.
Also, it seems you're passing 'nomodeset' even in your default boot
config.

If you disable the use of uvesafb in /etc/default/grub (by setting
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"), do you experience any
problems?  This is probably the most straightforward workaround for
right now.  It won't give you a graphical plymouth splash, but it also
won't force you to use recovery mode to boot.
