It's not even embedded version of the Qt. It's full version that is installed there. Even QML and WebKit is working. I like it as you can develop and test your software on your PC first.

Yes, that's the nice thing about running the stock Debian distribution. For me, though, one of the attractions about playing with the embedded version is that you can remove features you don't need, though you can do this with the X11 version as well if you really want to.

Nice. Thanks for making those changes available.
On a different subject, I've been experiencing issues with the representation of colours (well, shades of grey) on the framebuffer. When using your autoupdate tool, everything looks fine. Without autoupdate, the colour mapping seems incorrect. I'll try and post some photos to demonstrate this.
Update: I've attached two photos: the first shows a black-to-white gradient image which was sent to the framebuffer with auto-update enabled (using eink_enable_autoupdate); the second shows what happens after a full update is performed (with eink_full_update).
