Make X11 output to framebuffer display.

Hi. I'm trying to making Work a tiny (2.8") USB display with TinyCore. Up to now, I have been able to build the driver and load that as kernel module. Now I need to set this display as the "main display". The display vendor gives a X11 config file (named "10-disp.conf") example that looks like that:


--- Code: ---Section "Device"
         Identifier     "RPUSBDispFB"
         Driver         "fbdev"
         Option         "fbdev"   "/dev/fb1"
EndSection


Section "Screen"
    Identifier "RPUSBDisp"
    Device "RPUSBDispFB"
    DefaultFbBpp 16
    SubSection "Display"
       Visual "TrueColor"
    EndSubSection
EndSection


Section "InputClass"
    Identifier "RPUSBTouch"
    MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
    Driver "evdev"
EndSection
--- End code ---

The manual says that this file should be placed on  X11's config folder and then X11 should be restarted. I have some questions:

1. What would be the equivalent of /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d in TinyCore?.
2. Should I rename the file?
3. What would be the equivalent to commnad "service lightdm restart" in tinycore?.

Thanks

@ 1
/usr/local/share/X11/xorg.conf.d

And add that folder to your 'backup'.

There is no display manager. Kill the current X server (with killall, or ctrl-alt-backspace, or the exit applet) and run startx.

Hi:

I renamed de file as "xorg.conf.d" and placed it in /usr/local/share/X11/. Then I added the folder to the backup file. However when I restart the system, the X output still being directed to the video card, and there is not image on the display. What can I be doing wrong?.

Misalf:
"xorg.conf.d"  is the folder, not the file.

/usr/local/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-disp.conf
