XFree86 UseFBDev & 2.6.0-test7-benh

[Wesley Morgan]

I just rsync'ed the latest linux-2.5-benh from the 
theorie.physik.uni-muenchen.de server today, and XFree86 seems to be 
unable to find the framebuffer device when I boot w/ it. I have 
/dev/fb/0 and /dev/fb/1 (using devfs; /dev/fb0 & /dev/fb1 symlinks are 
there). X starts fine using 2.4.x and it starts (but behaves strangely) 
using 2.6.0-test2 (stock w/ Debian patches). The framebuffer is working 
because I am seeing the bootlogo on startup and video is working 
quickly enough to make me think it is *very* unlikely that the OF 
framebuffer is being used. However, when I launch XFree86 (4.2.1+; 
Debian sid current), it says that a suitable framebuffer device could 
not be found. When I change UseFBDev to false, it gives me a different 
error and still won't start. Any suggestions?
