  When I run startx I get

  (EE) Failed to load module "fbdev" (module does not exist, 0)
  (EE) <default pointer>: Cannot find which device to use.
  (EE) xf860OpenSerial: No Device specified
  (EE) <default pointer>: cannot open input device
  (EE) PreInit failed for input device "<default pointer>"
  No core Pointer

  Fatal server error:
  failed to initialize core devices

fbdev sounds like the Linux frame buffer device. What's fbdev doing in a nice operating system like FreeBSD?
