It works now, the culprit was the name of the driver: imxdrm is the 
right one.


Now a little bit off-topic question:

- Is it better to use Xorg X11 (with a custom full screen application 
using Qt 5) [with all concerns about using a Debian Jessie for armhf, 
i.e.: imx-drm-vivante driver, opengl/opencl custom libraries etc.,...] 
or using a framebuffer Qt application??? I know the framebuffer does not 
have any acceleration, but I suppose the CPU (even the dual-core) is 
powerful enough to manage some simple transition of the application pages...

What do you think about this?
