yehhhs, i noticed that about 2 hours after posting :)
unfortunately, xserver-xfbdev was commented out of lenny builds, on
the basis that the debian x team member who compiled it did not look
up documentation on how to run it ( /usr/local/bin/Xfbdev :0 vt7 dpms
-br +bs -dpi 96 -mouse mouse,5,device=/dev/input/mice,protocol=imPS/2
-keybd keyboard -fp
/usr/local/share/fonts,/usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1,/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu
-nolisten TCP) and so could not get a keyboard or mouse to work.
i just tried compiling it up myself (apt-get source xserver-xorg and
uncommenting the relevant sections, thus creating an xserver-xfbdev
package), and, wonderfully, it segfaults.
and no, thanks to udev 0.125 being incompatible with the 2.6.24
kernel, installing xserver-xfbdev from testing isn't an immediate
option.
_but_, actually, all this turns out to be ... well, i found a samsung
s3c64xx xfbev driver (or, actually, zecrazytux did):
