Which DRM drivers end up being used in both setups?

FYI, I tried to get the Android tree from your github (you pointed to
me some time ago for reproducing another issue) to work and couldn't
get anything besides black screen even without any changes. I just
followed the steps from the guide, without doing anything special. Any
chance there is simply something flaky there (a race condition or some
dependency on certain implementation specific behavior of some module)
that simply stops working if the running setup changes even a bit
(e.g. I might have used a different version of Qemu)?

Best regards,
Tomasz
