http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5441

           Summary: SVGATextMode problem on 2.6.14-rc4
    Kernel Version: 2.6.14-rc4
            Status: NEW
          Severity: blocking
             Owner: jsimmons@infradead.org
         Submitter: olel@ans.pl


Most recent kernel where this bug did not occur: 2.6.13.4

Distribution: Slackware

Problem Description:

After upgrding my kernel to 2.6.14-rc4 I noticed that SVGATextMode, instead of
changing screen resolution to 100x40, messed my console completely. 

Reverting those two patches helps:
