xf86-video-fbdev was installed by default when TW was installed so I assume at some point that package will be dropped from the repos and removed from systems.
When that happens will the Xorg modesetting driver be auto installed ?
If not, what is the name for that package ?
Is it xorg-x11-driver-video ?
None of the above. It's already installed if you have X installed, part of xorg-x11-server. You may already see X check if it will load:
