Hi,
I don't know the card and cannot help much. Just want to mention that I suspect 
XF86_FBDev is the
X 3.3.6 server and fbdev the X 4.0.3 driver, so you should first check which of 3.3.6 
or 4.0.3 you
are running (I suspect 4.0.3 otherwise you would bum out with fbdev) have you tried 
vesa? slow
(unaccelerated) but could get you started and from there you might have less of a 
problem figuring
out what does not work. There may well be a driver for your card but I don't know 
which one it is,
possibly on the www.XFree86.org you might (should) find a list of drivers and which 
cards they
support.
sorry not to be able to help more
