Patch tested successfully. Without the patch:

fb: 3Dfx Voodoo3 memory = 16384K
Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 80x30

With the patch:

fb: 3Dfx Voodoo3 memory = 16384K
Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 128x48

Much better! :) This is on a Voodoo3. If you want me to test something
in particular, just let me know.

Thanks,
