By enabling framebuffer do you mean passing vga-modes as a kernel
argument? If you haven't tried that, give it a shot. I have been
successful in using w3m with full image support with vga modes like
0x316 ...
The best suited mode will probably be different for you depending on
your monitor resolution. I would put vga=ask and experiment with all the
options the kernel provides.
However one word of caution, although w3m worked by itself, emacs-w3m
failed to display the images in the text terminal. So YMMV.
