Description tf 2012-04-08 15:38:48 UTC 
meta-yocto/conf/machine/beagleboard.com hardcodes the virtual/xserver provider, i.e., it includes the following:

PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/xserver = "xserver-xorg-lite"

I don't think machine conf is the correct place for selecting what is essentially a distro feature, but at least this should use the '?=' operator; as is to select a different provider one must provide a complete beagleboard.conf file.
