The above command iirc at&t syntax correctly, will destroy %edi.

How about info registers edi and eax?

Hmm, since edi is killed above, it doesn't look that exploitable. Since you
can modify edi though, it kindof suggests you have overwritten other
information. What does a backtrace (bt) under gdb look like?
Possibly though given the ltrace, you may need to match the sscanf() call,
so that the 4rd arg is written to. (That could be the reason for the
EOF's). A x/s 0x0804f928 should suffice.
I also notice that libvga is used, and that /dev/mem is open; this itself
leads to an exploitable condition, because you can now modify kernel memory
with what you want. libvga will also attempt to drop privs for you, iirc.
(From memory, under linux for the kernel, you get the virtual address of
the kernel (maybe via /proc/ksyms), and 0x00ffffff the address to get the
physical address.)
Some distros don't set CLOSE ON EXEC when they open /dev/mem, which makes
it easier to exploit b/c you can start programs targetting that open fd,
rather than shellcoding it.
