My previous version using kamikaze4 patchset was wrong, it had both vesafb-tng and uvesafb in the kernel. I have compiled
2.6.22's kamikaze5 patchset with
only spock's uvesafb in the kernel. And indeed, splashutils works fine. So this mean uvesafb is ok.
You will need to install v86d package if you wish to use the uvesafb video driver.

If you want to compile yourself you might want to do manually two other changes to the patchset (to be done also if you download my linux-source package):
1. If you compile ipw3945 net driver, then add EXTRA_CFLAGS += -DIPW3945_COMPAT=1 in drivers/net/wireless/Makefile
2. If you compile oss sound modules, then remove any *_syms.o in sound/oss/Makefile
