Apart from Abiword, BL3.5 works in X (Xfbdev) on this computer.

Ratpoison window manager, like Abiword, will not work with Xfbdev.
open failed for inet6.

Slitaz linux will not boot for me from live CD with savage MX chip.
In theory they have a framebuffer kernel but vga=791 did not help at the boot line. They use Xvesa. Since S3 dropped this kernel a while ago Xvesa is unlikely to ever support it.
