Try booting with video=intelfb:1024x768-16@60,mtrr=0. Do not include
the vga=0x318 option.  This prevents intelfb from changing the videomode.

It seems that intelfb can't change it no matter what....booting with video=intelfb:1024x768-16@60,mtrr=0 gives me the usual vga console and no framebuffer. The following is printed during boot:

[...]

On the other hand, the vga=0x318 gives a 1024x768 console (and the vc <-> X fight) with the following messages during boot:

[...]

(I tried X in 1024x768-32bpp after seeing the messages from the vga=... boot but the problems remained)

Suggestions?
