I'm **way** out of my depth here (decent on Python but embedded Linux -  ) but if there's any way I can help sort this for those of us with these devices let me know.
Edit: looks like there's more detail on the kindle buffers here.

Thanks for the links, I'll take a look at them tomorrow. Saves me some time having to search for them.
And I have absolutely no experience with embedded Linux myself outside of my Kobo work.
I'm just a high school student who likes to fiddle with stuff.

Nope, I didn't modify pygame at all. It already has support for framebuffers, so getting
it to work was just a matter of compiling python and pygame in a virtual machine for ARM.
