Doesn't r128 support the "fbdev" option to specify the framebuffer device?

Here's the important code from the glint driver:


	for (i = 0; i < numDevSections; i++) {
 	    dev = xf86FindOptionValue(devSections[i]->options,"fbdev");
 	    if (devSections[i]->busID) {
 		xf86ParsePciBusString(devSections[i]->busID,&bus,&device,&func);
 		if (!xf86CheckPciSlot(bus,device,func))
 		    continue;
 	    }
 	    if (fbdevHWProbe(NULL,dev,&name)) {
 		ScrnInfoPtr pScrn;

  				/* Check for pm2fb */
 		if (strcmp(name,"Permedia2")) continue;
 		foundScreen = TRUE;
 		pScrn = NULL;

 		if (devSections[i]->busID) {
 		    /* XXX what about when there's no busID set? */
 		    int entity;
 		    entity = xf86ClaimPciSlot(bus,device,func,drv,
 					      0,devSections[i],
 					      TRUE);
 		    pScrn = xf86ConfigPciEntity(pScrn,0,entity,
 						      NULL,RES_SHARED_VGA,
 						      NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL);
 		    if (pScrn)
  			xf86DrvMsg(pScrn->scrnIndex, X_CONFIG,
  				   "claimed PCI slot %d:%d:%d\n",bus,device,func);
 		} else {
