Knowing what video chip is involved, what kernel module you're trying to use with it, and what settings you have in Xorg (the contents of /etc/X11/xorg.conf and /var/log/Xorg.0.log would be good here), would be useful info to have in order to attempt to help; we are not psychic (this week, as far as I know). Also, are you trying to run in framebuffer mode (and it's not working, obviously), or are you not supposed to be running in framebuffer mode (so you're making an incorrect request when starting the X server, which needs to be corrected)?
