[ reads through fbset code ]
So it looks like fbset turns off acceleration by setting up the accel flag in
var (that FB_ACCELF_TEXT oddity).
While it makes sense that changing acceleration is a mode-switch item (quiescing
video engine and such), it seems more like it should be an ioctl (or sysfs!)
thing now... Changing certain bits of var and hoping that set_var() will guess
in the correct way seems generally b0rken...
