All is fine vga=793 does not break uvesafb on my Acer Aspire but does
not help either.  Only on QEMU vga=793 broke everything.  Maybe leave
the patch as is.

Also with uvesafb my Acer Aspire with ATI Radeon boots fine without
kernel parameters.  Without uvesafb the screen remains black until I
switch to a console.  I believe this issue can be closed?

Florian
