Yes, there is a vm-display-fbdev for Linux.

https://github.com/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm/tree/Cog/platforms/unix/vm-display-fbdev

You have to build a VM with the proper libraries installed for evdev and 
fbdev.  The conventonal build checks that the proper libraries are 
installed and does not build vm-display-fbdev otherwise.
