As far as understand from previous posts, the easiest way to get the vga to work would be to get the vga bios in flash? The vga chip on board is C&T69000, and I have a vga bios for it. (I did a quick test, the vga bios was found it seems, but I forgot to compile in pcibios.c , so it kept looping )
If you search hard enough there is a fb driver for the 69000. However, last I looked it had not been worked on in a long while and it didn't really work that well. Chances are it probally won't compile anymore with the current fb stuff. But it might not be that much work to fix. The X 69000 driver works great so you might be able to get a lot of code/settings from it if you tried.
I'm intersted in helping you get the C&T video bios working since our system has 2 69000's on it and I'd like them to vga on boot rather than wait for fb or X.
Course I have to get SDRAM working first. *grin*
