Slow framebuffer
I've enable framebuffer on grub putting vga=xxx in grub configuration. The resolution works fine, but it's very slow to cat files or ls directories. I only add vga in kernel line on grub. Would I have do anything else? For example load nvidia (My graphic card is nvidia) module?

Re: Slow framebuffer
You should not have to load any module unless you aren't using the stock kernel which uses vesafb by default. What graphics card are you using?

Re: Slow framebuffer
My graphic card is a Geforce 8600m GT. On X I'm using the nvidia proprietary driver.

Re: Slow framebuffer
You could try uvesafb, it's in the wiki. It has multiple options to tweak - you might be able to get something faster.
