[2.6.11 Permedia-2 Framebuffer] driver broken (?).

Hi

Worked on 2.6.10-rc2. With 2.6.11 during boot upon switching to fb, text
becomes orange, penguins look sick (not sharp). X starts and runs normal
(doesn't use fb), switching to vt not possible any more. Disabling
fb-console in kernel config fixes VTs. Reverting pm2fb.c fixes the
problem.

No unusual output in dmesg.
