To configure blackbox in ~/.blackbox/menu is a child play and takes just minutes and can be done a little at a time.
Thanks, Peter. We seem to be turning up a lot of interesting ideas in this thread.
As I said in an earlier comment, I thought the place to look for help is not in large distros but in stuff targeted to embedded systems. I spent a bit of time looking around there this afternoon and turned up this site -- http://www.directfb.org/ -- that provides a small library that permits direct access to the framebuffer. I didn't look at all the details, but maybe Jeremy will want to investigate if it fits his needs.
Descriptions of and pointers to variety of projects, some possibly relevant to Jeremy's needs, can be found at http://www.linuxdevices.com/articles/AT9202043619.html
