Right, I did that now, and have the framebuffer splash back. X also 
starts
but the whole system locks hard once gdm tries to paint the login area.
Unfortunately, after rebooting the log doesn't give me any useful

I have to fiddle around with the setup a bit to see what's wrong, maybe
something's still missing.

Cheers,
