For me this is broken ever since 2.6.26 on a Mac Mini with all of
efifb/intelfb/vesafb but perhaps this is a different issue.

I will try to rebuild 2.6.29 with intelfb and the patch to see if that
makes a difference.

Currently efifb does give correct geometry but wrong colours for me,
the other framebuffers would also produce picture with wrong geometry
with 2.6.26.
