From: Pekka Paalanen <[email protected]> The link to firmware loading was dead, removed.
Remove notes about specific kernel versions and chip families, I don't think they are relevant anymore. No-one should be running that old kernels. "New" cards are quite old today, and probably should not list any specific chips, because the requirement is essentially shaderful hardware if one wants OpenGL acceleration with Weston. OTOH, Pixman renderer should work on much older cards as well. Keep it simple.
