And this matches. I think its pretty clear that your monitor and system
are set up correctly.

Hmm - it looks like you might not have the fbconsole installed.  Here
is what my system says:

lxfb 0000:00:01.1: 24576 KB of video memory at 0x90000000                       
fbcon: Geode LX (fb0) is primary device                                         
Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 128x48                         
fb0: Geode LX frame buffer device  

Check for CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE in your .config
