+ <p>The Raspberry Pi SoC consists of two parts: ARM and GPU
+ (VideoCore). Many interesting features like OpenGL, video
+ playback, and HDMI controls are implemented on the VideoCore side
+ and can be accessed from the OS through libraries provided by
+ Broadcom (userland repo). These libraries were ported to &os;
+ some time ago, so Mikaël created the port
+ <tt>misc/raspberrypi-userland</tt> for them. He also created a
+ port for <tt>omxplayer</tt> (a low-level video player that
+ utilizes VideoCore APIs) and is working on a port for Kodi
+ (ex-XBMC), a more user-firendly media player software with
+ Raspberry Pi support.</p>
