This is indeed bad :-(

OK, in this case I will package the one you suggested:

  commit 703acea131caf72e71f04a0ad40f540fe236be89
  Author: Lars-Peter Clausen <lars at metafoo.de>
  Date:   Tue Feb 24 21:01:29 2009 +0100

    Mark the mode of the framebuffer which was set before the xserver
    was started as
    preferred.

Before going to main I still need to sort out the license issues, thus
the first upload will be anyway to the pkg-fso repository.  I will then
contact Lars about the license and future upgrades.

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
