Video card debugging info (Mach64, Beige G3)- how to turn it off (Beige G3, YDL 4.0.1 and kernel 2.6.10-1)

[Andrew]

I dont know how to 'turn off' this behavior but I know for sure its
2.6.10+ fault. Since 2.6.9 and lesser does not show this stuffs.. Even
Ubuntu Hoary have messed up consoles (it use 2.6.10-5) Its faulty ATI
(atyfb?) drivers..
