In 2.6, fbcon has its own way of restoring its own state so the UseFBDev option is not needed, and in your case, is counterproductive. Aha, didn't know that. It had been my impression that this option meant using the fbdev API for all vidcard access; It does, for the things the fbdev API provides. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | Debian (powerpc), X and DRI developer Libre software enthusiast| http://svcs.affero.net/rm.php?r=daenzer

Yes. Reading that bug report, the problem is specific to matroxfb's hardware acceleration. Petr Vandrovec is the best person for this problem.
