As I recall, having more then one built in to the kernel causes problems, especially with VGA16 and VESA. Why not just turn on CONFIG_FB_VESA=y, and make the others modules (=m). Why not turn off, or at least build as modules, all the things you aren't really going to be using. Building everything into the kernel is a good way to cause yourself problems. As an example, part of my config is: CONFIG_FB=y # CONFIG_FB_PM2 is not set # CONFIG_FB_CYBER2000 is not set # CONFIG_FB_IMSTT is not set # CONFIG_FB_VGA16 is not set CONFIG_FB_VESA=y CONFIG_VIDEO_SELECT=y The only things turned on in the graphics section are displayed above.
