@Daniel - on one hand it is also a change in xorg that makes the driver missing 
now - so an FYI for that.
But in an IRC discussion there were two potential paths to resolve this issue 
overall:
- make the cirrus.ko available in the non -extra package so that it works out 
of the box using this driver
- tjaaltonen identified the message around fbbpp (24) which could be a fix in X 
source to get base VESA working even without cirrus.ko being in place

We don't mind which path is chosen to fix it, the kernel change seems
the more straight forward one to me, but OTOH if a fix for the 24bit
Vesa is found that would eliminate the new dependency on the kernel
module which would be even nicer.
