BBB fbdev or lack there of



Hi all,

ive switched back for a bit to the beaglebone after looking into SGX stuff on the Panda.

Current OS is Wheezy running 

Linux arm 3.14.0-bone0 #1 SMP Wed Apr 2 14:55:38 UTC 2014 armv7l GNU/Linux

I did this one up over netinstall and Robert Nelson's repo for the kernel.  now with Xorg if I use Xorg -configure I get

No devices to configure.  Configuration failed.

fbdev is in the list of drivers, I did look at dmesg to see what was found,

[    4.290629] tilcdc 4830e000.lcdc: found TDA19988
[    4.296075] [drm] Supports vblank timestamp caching Rev 2 (21.10.2013).
[    4.303034] [drm] No driver support for vblank timestamp query.
[    4.309566] tilcdc 4830e000.lcdc: No connectors reported connected with modes
[    4.317051] [drm] Cannot find any crtc or sizes - going 1024x768
[    4.331875] Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 128x48
[    4.343381] tilcdc 4830e000.lcdc: fb0:  frame buffer device
[    4.349272] tilcdc 4830e000.lcdc: registered panic notifier
[    4.355125] [drm] Initialized tilcdc 1.0.0 20121205 on minor 0

Could someone point me in the right direction as to what I am missing,

PS.  I did read forums about not using any of the omap fb's as apparently they are not for this SoC.

Regards
Nigel Sollars
