# ln -s /dev/console /dev/fb is the dirty thing which works around the un-redistributable fb drivers. Worse: Even a # touch /dev/fb is enough. Only works with XFree86 or Xorg, not with Xsun (due to missing API entry point). Further: Does work with the Ati chips (PGX, PGX24, PGX64, XVR-100) and also with 3dlabs-Permedia2(glint), but not with afb, ffb, ffb2 inside XFree86 (also due to missing entry points). --Martin
