AST VGA from Debian Installer

[siliconbadger]

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=990016 was submitted by Tim Pearson to include ast fb module in Debian installer.  I have tried the Bookworm RC4 installer (released about a week ago, while the bug fix was merged over 2 months ago), but I still get no video from the VGA output.

Am I jumping the gun looking for this change in this RC?  Or is there something else I need to be doing (kernel argument?) to get VGA output?

Should already be fixed, I thought. You tried this workaraund?
