+    <body>
+      <p>iMX.6 is a family of SoC used in multiple hobbyist ARM
+	boards such as the Hummingboard, RIoTboard, and Cubox.  Most of
+	these products have HDMI output, but until recently, &os; did not
+	benefit from it.  As of r292574, there is basic video output
+	support so you can use the console on iMX6-based boards and
+	probably run Xorg (not yet tested).</p>
+
+      <p>Due to the lack of some kernel functionality (see open
+	tasks), the only supported mode is 1024x768.</p>

+	<p>Proper pixel clock initialization (relies on a clock
+	  framework).</p>

+	<p>More flexible video output path (support multiple IPUs
+	  and DIs).</p>
