A normal X server, or an fbdev/GGI one ? A normal X server will
program the hardware directly, I guess that normally is fine since it
puts the console in KD_GRAPHICS mode (telling fbcon to bugger off).
But then you run fbset or the fbdev target, and it the kernel tries to
program the hardware (using wrong data, since the X server has changed
everything). Boom. Video card hosed, and neither the kernel nor the
X server have enough info to fix it...
