Commit 159fed47bc (nixos/grub: Fix video display on efi) changed BIOS systems to start in non-text mode as well. Enable FB_VESA to get a framebuffer console on BIOS systems. Change FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE to 'y' instead of the default 'm' to so the user doesn't need to manually load the fbcon module anymore. Other distros have similar defaults, at least on Arch: CONFIG_FB_VESA=y CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE=y and on Ubuntu (12.04): CONFIG_FB_VESA=m CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE=y Fixes #8139
