Well, that doesn't chage XGGI's behaviour:
XGGI & resulted in the error "display fb-dev: Couldn't open framebuffer device
/dev/fb/0: Not a directory" before I gave world write access to /dev/fb0 and now
it works glamerously!
Is there any other reason why one should have /dev/fb/[0-7] instead of
/dev/fb[0-7] ?
