I recently compiled Xfbdev (the fbdev version of KDrive) and the final

If you built it with debugging symbols enabled, then those will be included in the binary on disk, even though they don't get loaded into memory at runtime. strip(1) will fix that.

only contains fake, fbdev and ephyr.  What happened to all of the
others like i810, nvidia, vesa etc.

We deleted them because they were broken and in every way inferior to the corresponding Xorg drivers.
