As I understand it, the Toolkit (GTK/QT) simply send their rendering information to X11 under normal systems, but will send it directly to the Framebuffer on embedded systems (providing your using GtkFB or QT/Embedded, obviously). So, you should be able to get away with simply enabling framebuffer support in your kernel.
