x on serial console

[jenny tc]

Hi,
    I have a mips board with composite video output.I was trying to
implement xserver on the board. When I execute startx I am getting error
"xf86OpenConsole: Cannot open /dev/tty0 device =(null) (No such file or
directory)" . The tv is attached to device /dev/video0. The kernel has
support to virtual terminal , but it is not creating any ttys. Is there
anyway to bring xwindow with a serial console?
