You can't be more wrong. I wish you said something that is correct, but sadly
that's probably not gonna happen.

llvmpipe doesn't need any hardware-specific drivers, not even kernel drivers.
The kernel and/or X can light up the display and change resolutions without
knowing or caring what hardware it's running on.
