fbset module not available in busybox

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install Busybox and replace existing copy in /system/xbin
2. Run busybox fbset from command prompt

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
It should be able to set the video resolution and color depth, but instead this 
version spits out an error:
shell@android:/system/xbin $ fbset
fbset: applet not found

This causes a problem when certain Android devices boot up and try to set their 
screen resolution and mouse cursor.  In particular the Pivos XIOS DS box has 
this problem.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
v8.6 (BusyBox v1.20.2-Stericson) on Android 4.0.3

Please provide any additional information below.
Running on Pivos XIOS DS.
Built-in busybox on XIOS DS platform in /system/xbin:
BusyBox v1.16.2androidfull (2012-03-08 20:03:10 PST) multi-call binary.

        BusyBox is a multi-call binary that combines many common Unix
        utilities into a single executable.  Most people will create a
        link to busybox for each function they wish to use and BusyBox
        will act like whatever it was invoked as.

Seems the issue is back as I have the mouse pointer problem since the last 
busybox update.  When I run busybox --list I notice that fbset is no longer 
there.

Hi Joey,

I'll be adding this back in. I apologize, somehow it got dropped. I think that 
when I am copying over my config somehow certain applets are being lost, this 
is something I am going to be looking into. The next release of the installer 
will have fbset back in 1.21.1.

working great now. 

Thanks!
