It's been a while since I did any porting so things may have changed
(donut and eclair).  I just did graphics, no other devices (sound,
gps, accelerometer, etc.).  Specifically, I added support for an 555
RGB in 16 bits screen.

I found that Android is mostly forgiving of the Linux kernel version
as long as you have the correct Android specific kernel patches
applied.  I applied the Android kernel patches to the board supplied
kernel sources.

Here is the list of Android files I changed for framebuffer support.
It may be under or over kill but I did get correct images on the
screen (until Android crashed running out of RAM):
