Hi all,

    Thanks for your prompt replies guys. I did turn on "Virtual Terminal" in my 
device drivers and I also enabled "Support for console on virtual terminal". By 
the way I am using the prebuilt binaries from armel debian release as building 
the X system from scratch together with all its required libraries requires a 
great amount of effort and time. Is this SwitchVT that I have to look into 
inside one of the scripts in the binary release? Hope you guys can help me out 
of this mess.

Thanks and best regards,
Andy

  Subject: Xorg over Linux vfb Problem


  Hi All,

      I am trying to run Xorg on my arm target device. It has no physical 
display device so I just enabled linux virtual framebuffer. But when I try to 
run the xserver, I get the message "Cannot open virtual console 2". How do I 
get rid of this fatal error message preventing me to startup the Xorg server. 
Attached is my configuration file and the log file created by running "Xorg :98 
-nolisten tcp". Did I miss anything? Or is it just my command line? What is 
this virtual console anyway? Do I need to map my fb0 to it and how? Hope 
somebody can help me here.
      By the way, I am not using Xvfb as I still want other applications to 
bypass the X window system. So I am using Linux virtual frame buffer module, 
not the Xvfb"

  Thanks and best regards,
  Andy
