Cannot run in framebuffer mode

Hello!

 

I tried to install "Proxmox VE 6.1" (https://www.proxmox.com/en/proxmox-ve), based on "Debian 10.2 Buster", which, in turn, use
"X.Org X Server 1.20.4".

I tried to install it on "Huawei FusionServer Pro E9000 Blade Server"
(https://e.huawei.com/en/products/servers/e-series/e9000-server-chassis).

I use "Huawei CH121 V5 Compute Node" (https://e.huawei.com/en/products/servers/e-series/ch121-v5-node).

It use video chip "Silicon Motion SM750"
(https://support.huawei.com/enterprise/en/doc/EDOC1000183581/55b73ea4/technical-specifications, "Video card" section).

 

Unfortunately, the X Server does not start during the installation process. It terminated with error:

 

Fatal server error:

[    33.235] (EE) Cannot run in framebuffer mode. Please specify busIDs        for all framebuffer devices

 

On your site I did not find the SM750 chip in the list of supported Silicon Motion chips
(https://www.x.org/releases/current/doc/man/man4/siliconmotion.4.xhtml).

Does this mean, that I will not be able to run the X Server on this hardware? And I will not be able to install "Proxmox VE 6.1"
on it?

 

Log file of the installation process are attached ("Xorg.0.log").
