kern/144654: [vesa] VESA support broken on FreeBSD 8.0 Stable [regression]

[Jung-uk Kim]

I need little bit more information.  Does it respond to ping when it 
happens?  Can you switch to other modes?  Can you please try the 
attached patch?

BTW, your VESA BIOS is reporting all modes are VGA compatible, which 
is impossible.

Thanks,

Jung-uk Kim
