... The only catch is that I had to modify my kernel config. I think there isn't a way to make the needed change with just a boot parameter but feel free to correct me.
Assuming you already know what you have to do to recompile your kernel on your distro, you'll have to set the following in your kernel config:
CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_DEFERRED_TAKEOVER=n
That's it. That's the only change needed. Recompile and enjoy.
