Well... it may not. IE. The text consoles can be using a different mode
than X, and so fbcon will be all setup for that ... (including how many
lines/columns etc...).

So it's not totally trivial... but on the other hands, it would be
useful to avoid as much as possible complicated things like mode
switches when hitting an oops.

Cheers,
Ben.
