It's strange that you haven't got any other fb modes, just /dev/fb0.
Have you got /dev/fbcurrent? I'm using the m68k famebuffer device and
got a whole load of /dev/fb'n' and /dev/fb'xx...xx' modes installed by
default. Can you use fbset with your system? Were you prompted to
make a Sun specific server or frame buffer server your default X server
when you installed it?
