X - Framebuffer problem



X server (4.3) complains thai it cannot open framebuffers:

WW: open /dev/fb? No such device
(the message is repeated apropos /dev/fb1 ... /dev/fb7)

Then this gives an error

EE: RADEON(0): Failed to open framebuffer device

/dev/fb1 - /dev/fb7 exist; is it possible that it is a permission problem?

Do you know what a framebuffer is, and whether it is essential?

Thanks,
Piero
