+This directory contains the interface for Linux using SDL.
+
+On this board uGFX currently supports:
+	- GDISP via the SDL driver
+	- GINPUT-touch via the SDL driver
+	- GINPUT-keyboard via the SDL driver
+
+
+The folowing packages are required to run uGFX using this driver on
+a 64-bit Linux system using SDL:
+	+ gcc-multilib
+	+ build-essential
+	+ libsdl2-dev:i386

+The following should be added to the CFLAGS of the target makefile:
+	CFLAGS = `sdl2-config --libs --cflags`
+
