Resolved!
So I've now got android running on an HP dv2900 laptop (g965, C2D),
with framebuffer & keyboard fully working. I'm booting from a live
USB.
SATA, Ethernet and Wifi aren't working, but that was expected. I
wonder what it'll take to make these work...
On another note, I'd be interested in writing a soft mouse so that
even without the mouse hardware working, navigating touch UIs would be
possible. Currently mouse HW behaves as a wheel/keypad...
Thanks for the help!
