vbetool maxing cpu out

[James McDonald]

  I'm seeing this: in dmesg under Fedora 13

{
Starting udev: udevd[432]: worker [438] unexpectedly returned with 
status 0x0100

udevd[432]: worker [438] failed while handling 
'/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0'


udevadm settle - timeout of 180 seconds reached, the event queue contains:
   /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0 (1183)
   /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0/card0-VGA-1 (1184)
   /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/controlD64 (1185)
   /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/graphics/fb0 (1186)
   /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/i2c-0 (1187)
Wait timeout. Will continue in the background.    [FAILED]

}

It equates to this device:
{
lspci  | grep 00:02.0
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82865G Integrated 
Graphics Controller (rev 02)
}

Then using top I get:
Anyone else seeing this sort of utilisation from vbetool (something to 
do with video bios). If so what is a work around?
