4 Subject: [PATCH 1038/1085] overlays/README: Document that vc4-(f)kms requires
7 The firmware stops vc4-kms-v3d and vc4-fkms-v3d loading if the
8 system has less than 512MB of RAM. It can work if gpu_mem and
9 CMA heap size are set appropriately, but can't be guaranteed.
10 Document this restriction.
12 Also drops Eric's name from the overlay description as it
13 isn't relevant or accurate anymore.
