Hello,

Booting a nearly 2.6.28-rc5 kernel, I got this warning which I never had
before (latest previous kernel being some 2.6.28-rc2).

resource map sanity check conflict: 0xd0000000 0xdfffffff 0xd0000000 0xd076ffff vesafb

If I remove the vesafb driver, the warning goes away. That seems to be a
new warning. Probably is has always been happening on my laptop, how bad
is that? My X intel driver is 2.5.0 . If one driver has to be fixed, which
one: vesafb or intel?
