Next steps:
-> edit upstart to knock Xorg offline, and then see if I can access the framebuffer
-> See if I can create an X app that will load within the windowing system that I can push too..

Getting a build environment working took a while...
Why re-invent the wheel?
First, review all of the work that geekmaster has done and described about the Kindle video system across most models.
Include in your reading gmplay (streaming video on the Kindle).

You are working in an area already very well researched and described.
Do yourself a favor and start with what already has been done.
