+2.O. Graphic stacks
+===================
+The Raspberry Pi boards can use one of two graphics stacks: The userland
+user-space driver or the vc4 DRM/KMS kernel driver. By default userland
+is used since the vc4 is still experimental. But this can be changed by
+modifying the defaults for the kernel, egl, gles2, libgl and mesa providers.
+This is explained in the conf/machine/include/rpi-default-providers.inc file.
