Intel Pineview video card & unwanted framebuffer

Question

Hi, I just bought an Intel D510MO motherboard with the new Atom D510, the NM10 chipset and the Pineview integrated video card. Everything works well, but on boot the framebuffer is automatically activated just after disks have been checked, although I didn't add a 'vga=XXX' option in GRUB's menu.lst.
How can I disable this and go back with no framebuffer at all? Is this related with KMS?
Thanks

I guess KMS is standard now.
Create some .conf (e.g. modprobe.conf) in /etc/modprobe.d/ and write
options i915 modeset=0
Assuming that Pinetrail is i915. There probably is also a kernel boot command you could find with google.
Any particular reason why you want to disable it?
