It tries to (re)set the current mode if it can't find working
modes from /etc/fb.modes. This shouldn't fail if the pixel format
is supported by DirectFB. The only difference in the var screen
info struct passed to the driver should be the FB_ACTIVATE_TEST
flag. Try commenting out line 1757 in system/fbdev/fbdev.c:

//     var.activate = surface ? FB_ACTIVATE_NOW : FB_ACTIVATE_TEST;

If that helps, it's a bug in the driver. Otherwise I'd be
wondering if setting anything at all is supported by the driver.
Or there's another difference that I can't see.
