For the video question: I think yes, it is a mistake to have the Xserver
do the card settings. Really. The Xserver should have exposed interfaces
to the card, and the kernel should know about the state, so that switching
VTs, resetting state after X crash or suspend will work.

For the drawing commands itself, something like the DRM module should be
used for 2D drawing, too.
