Yes I have made the changes in the lilo.conf file. I have the framebuffer x server installed on my system. I changed the softlink /etc/X11/X to point to the XF86_FBDev and made the changes in the XF86Config file. Still I feel that the X server is not using the framebuffer devices. Even when I remove the /dev/fb0 device the X server keeps functioning normally, without giving any messages in the logfile.
