Oh, false alarm on this second point - the LCD is screwed up after using
nvflash to flash the device, but when power-cycling it rather than just
resetting it, the LCD works fine. I guess this means the driver is not
initializing something that nvflash changed, and relying on a power-on
default. I suppose it might not be worth fixing that given it works from
cold power on.
