too many framebuffers


I haven't been able to get bootsplash to work- i just found this section in /var/log/dmesg that tells me why

matroxfb: Matrox G400 (AGP) detected
matroxfb: MTRR's turned on
matroxfb: 1024x768x16bpp (virtual: 1024x8192)
matroxfb: framebuffer at 0xCC000000, mapped to 0xe080c000, size 33554432
fb0: MATROX frame buffer device
fb0: initializing hardware
vesafb: abort, cannot reserve video memory at 0xcc000000
vesafb: framebuffer at 0xcc000000, mapped to 0xe280d000, size 1875k
vesafb: mode is 800x600x16, linelength=1600, pages=16
vesafb: protected mode interface info at c000:7b00
vesafb: scrolling: redraw
vesafb: directcolor: size=0:5:6:5, shift=0:11:5:0
fb1: VESA VGA frame buffer device

vga16fb: mapped to 0xc00a0000
fb2: VGA16 VGA frame buffer device

audit(1121816807.809:0): initialized
Total HugeTLB memory allocated, 0
Initializing Cryptographic API
ACPI: Processor [CPU1] (supports C1)
bootsplash 3.1.4-2004/02/19: looking for picture.... silentjpeg size 85519 bytes, found, but framebuffer can't handle it! (1024x768)

it looks like fb0 would work fine, so how do i get rid of fb1 and fb2?
