Rockbox needs buttons for input; the buttons are being mapped directly from the keyboard. Rockbox needs ata drivers, dunno how these are handled now, but I assume using OS standard apis, and I don't think it will be much different when running natively. And the lcd, you could perhaps control the graphics card on hardware level, but will that be convenient? Maybe I'm still too simple, and haven't really looked into the ui simulator code too. First get some sleep...
