			Wizzup plans to take the following steps:

			1. Boot mainline on pandaboard
			2. Boot latest ubuntu pvr supported kernel on pandaboard
			3. See if https://github.com/TexasInstruments/dri3wsegl works on latest ubuntu pvr kernel - if not, ouch
			4. See if there are newer releases from ti (kernel and userspace) that might work
			5. Port to mainline
			6. See if it works on droid4
			7. See if various mainline forward ports can be merged (Nikolaus' work)

			All of this is assuming omapdrmfb, not omapfb

There also exists leaked Android SGX540 DDK source code for OMAP4 device by LG, which is not linked here, but is easy to find and could be used as last resort.

			Some notes from irc:

			<pre>
			20:57 < Wizzup> NeKit: I made a stub page here - https://leste.maemo.org/Motorola_Droid_4/PowerVR
			20:57 < Wizzup> feel free to add ideas, links/resources, etc
			21:37 < NeKit> edited page a bit
			21:37 < NeKit> so support was cut after 4.04.00.04 SDK release, makes me wonder why
			21:39 < Wizzup> for what, for xorg or the older omap
			21:40 < Wizzup> or sgx :)
			21:40 < Wizzup> (all these names confuse me)
			21:40 < NeKit> SGX540
			21:42 < Wizzup> we should also involve nikolaus perhaps
			21:42 < NeKit> it has SGX core 1.2.0 and folder suffix is es7.x
			21:42 < Wizzup> ah, ok, I didn't realise it had that core
			21:43 < NeKit> http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Graphics_SDK_Quick_installation_and_user_guide#About_Graphics_SDK - notice 7.x is missing in
			table
			21:44 < Wizzup> what sgx does n900 have? I don't even remember
			21:44 < NeKit> SGX530, not sure for core revision
			21:44 < Wizzup> ok
			21:44 < NeKit> N9/N950 is also SGX530
			21:46 < Wizzup> http://www.ti.com/sitesearch/docs/universalsearch.tsp?searchTerm=SGX540&linkId=10&src=top&m=dd
			21:46 < Wizzup> seems this is the latest pandaboard release http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/RN_4_04_00_04?keyMatch=SGX540&tisearch=Search-EN
