intelfb is terribly broken : it explicitly doesn't work on laptop LCD
displays, it doesn't support all the funky resolutions DVI or VGA
displays have nowadays. Basically, it's nearly useless.

Try using vesafb-tng (I know it doesn't support some resolutions either)
but interactions between vesafb-tng and the intel X driver are _much_
better.

As for loading X very early in the boot process, this is a long debate,
but it's being worked on by X folks, I suggest you look at the general
xorg mailing list over at freedesktop for more info.

Cheers,
Rémi
