Attached is a patch that fixes the problem with gfxboot.  Below is a
link to the KVM bugzilla entry that has a more in-depth explaination of
the problem[1].  There's another bug in KVM that makes the install
screen black[2] but that should get fixed real soon.  I have a really
bad hack in the bug entry that lets the graphics show up.  Using a
remastered Gutsy install CD with my gfxboot patch and a patched KVM with
my VGA update hack, I can boot a Gutsy install CD on my VT laptop.  I'm
submitting this patch to upstream gfxboot too.  Hopefully this patch can
be applied to the Gutsy gfxboot package before Gutsy is released.
