If I remember well, loading disp.ko and lcd.ko made the LCD turn on
(black), but then the kernel freezes when writing to /dev/fb0.
Loading mali and its dependencies from the init.rc, I was able to
write to fb0 but then it froze after some seconds.
I might be wrong as I experimented different things, I probably should
have written down what worked and what not. I'll keep trying.
