It all depends on which card you are using for the console (/dev/fb0). You
might have to explicitely tell it which one to use. "cat /proc/fb" should
tell you what cards were detected and what framebuffer device each is
attached to. If you want to use the builtin mach64, then link /dev/fb to
/dev/fbn where 'n' is the number next to that device in /proc/fb.
For the Creator card you can use the xserver-xsun24 package.
