Thanks for the pointer, I'll try to dig a bit deeper there.

I forgot to mention that I am trying to run X inside an debian
unstable chroot (the main system is an embedded distribution where
installing X + mesa would be a major hassle).
FBdev works fine within this setup.

Thanks and best regards, Clemens
