fbset doesn't change resolution for all consoles

Hi.

I have fbset 2.1 (23/06/1999) and I'm running kernel 2.6.10 with
Matrox g450 support built into the kernel as well as fbcon. Standing
on a console I try running "fbset -a resolution" or "fbset
--all resolution" where resolution is one of the modes listed
in /etc/fb.modes. However, only the current console's resolution
is changed.

Is this a bug in fbset? Is there any new version of this software? I
remember using fbset on a 2.4.x kernel with the same video card
without problems.
