The PDF enhancements (contrast adjustment, zoom) in 3.4 firmware does not need kernel support. MOBI8 support is the only one I found that needs kernel support.

1 - So don't flash the kernel until you know it works.
I.E: Load it into memory with u-boot and execute it from there.
2a - See if you have a /proc/.config.gz file on your DXG while it is running. That is the config file that was used to build it.
2b - Use the kernel's attached symbol table of exported symbols, find in the kernel source tree what features export each symbol, enable those features.
3 - Your way - guess from the boot messages - lots of luck with that.
