Heee, need to read more closely myself. The check on the second line of 
the start function actually determines if we should try to load up a 
scaling driver, and its the check on the 23rd line (half of which are 
comments) that the silent exit happens if we still don't see support 
after trying to load up a driver. Just the same, we do bail out pretty 
quickly.
