IMO, that's not a fix per se. The vesa driver and i810 driver are
separate things.
Using the i810 driver instead of the vesa driver to resolve the issue
(hang on VT switch) is a workaround, not a fix.
never said anything else. But I think, it's good to "educate" people to use
drivers specific to their video card instead of the generic vesa driver - at
least for the onboard intels.
