Do you need to patch anything for this, or does it work out of the box?

Sounds like something does not get correctly initialized..

Well since the LCD is on, you could write a little function that
writes the output to the LCD. You just need to find out the virtual

Pretty easy to do.

BTW, do you have some Maemo package for kexec?
