[opensuse] How do I turn off frame-buff switch on boot ??

I'd like to keep my console in native vga/ega mode -- its'
faster, I don't miss output, nor do I have long blank periods and
it's more reliable (right now I see NO output from when the
kernel starts to boot until the login prompt appears, so I don't know if a kernel is coming up or has hung until the boot
process has finished).

So how do I disable the switch to using the frame buffer,
globally for all boots on my system?

Is there a simple switch I can set somewhere?

Or is this a problem (a 'bug'?)...? ;-)

thanks much!
