I have seen a board (Kontron CP306 3U CompactPCI) with which intelfb
al= ways claims that there is a non-CRT device connected - but the board
has= only a VGA output.  Probably this is just another broken BIOS...=

Building intelfb into the kernel and using the vga=3D.= .. parameter like
with vesafb used to work in this case.

&n= bsp;
=0A
>>> vga=3DXXX causes the vesafb to be loaded pri= or to the intelfb and reserve the fb memory region so the intelfb will fail= on initialization phase.
