'edd=off' on the kernel command line fixes this problem.
It makes the Debian kernel usable for me again since I have problems with
uvesafb + v86d also (
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=505977 ).
I'd still like to know why I don't need 'edd=off' with 2.6.26.7 from
kernel.org to use 'vga=791'.
