The patch titled Video Select set for VESA FB has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was video-select-set-for-vesa-fb.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: Video Select set for VESA FB From: James Simmons <jsimmons@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Automatically set VIDEO_SELECT when you select VESA FB. Currently if you select VESA FB with fbcon but don't select VGA console the box will not have its video mode set. Thus you get a blank screen.
