1.) I edited my /etc/initramfs-tools to look like:
fbcon
vsafb
vga16fb

2.) I changed /etc/modprobe.d
blacklist vesafb -> #blacklist vesafb
blacklist vga16fb -> #blacklist vga16fb

3.) sudo update-initramfs -u

I have an Nvidia GeForce 7600 GS, and this worked for me.
Try enabling vga16fb if no other method works, as is the case with my computer.
