[Xorg] What is this fbdev I keep seeing mentioned?

[Gene Heskett]

See subject.  Is this part of the x.org release?

I cannot find such a frame buffer device in the kernel .config for 
2.6.7-mm6, nor any of the earlier 2.6.7-ish kernels I have here.

Could this be the reason my fresh nvidia 6106 install is stumbling 
along at 75fps for glxgears?
