The pinebook is pretty much my primary machine (using it right now to
type this), and X is working fine here... It's not fancy accelerated
graphics, but it does work. I mostly have been using newer kernels from
buster-backports/sid/experimental, but the buster generation of kernels
worked fine for me last I tried.

Maybe you have some customization in /etc/X11/xorg.conf* that's telling
it to use fbturbo instead of fbdev?

What version of u-boot are you running? Again, it's been a while since I
tested the version in buster, but I've been using all the versions
uploaded since. Mainline (and Debian packaged) u-boot properly
configures the framebuffer for quite some releases...

Good luck!
