rmview with rm2fb installed makes the UI freeze #53

As soon as I start rmview, it straight up makes the tablet go icicle, I have to reboot it. Nothing interesting via journalctl -f on the device. After uninstalling rm2fb, no more issues.

As prominently (I hope) explained in the Readme:

:warning: For reMarkable 2 users :warning:: rMview should work out of the box with the stock firmware. If you use rm2fb there are known compatibilities issues that are being addressed.

RTFM I guess. Oops. Maybe add a small check that logs an error message? :sweat_smile:

No worries! I am actually waiting until the next release of the VNC server is released: that should solve this compatibility issue and also unblock some new features of rmview that are on hold since they depend on those changes to the server. This is imminent, so I thought adding warnings would not be necessary...
