This issue still exists on the released saucy, i.e. linux kernel 3.11.0-12-generic. Apparently the issue is about vmwgfx, so a workaround is to disable vmwgfx by adding a boot parameter like "vmwgfx.enable_fbdev=no" because if "vmwgfx.enable_fbdev=0" is used, vmwgfx module is still loaded. The boot parameter "vmwgfx.enable_fbdev=no" makes kernel complain "vmwgfx: `no' invalid for parameter `enable_fbdev'" so it won't be loaded. Ugly workaround but it works. It would be better that KMS mode could work with uvesafb.
