    * u-boot: enabled booting directly from ext4 partitions
    * u-boot: added a keypad driver and an option to enter u-boot shell (urjaman)
    * u-boot: some compatibility changes for the kernel idle power saving stuff (CC unit might not show u-boot menu if you stay on the old u-boot version and require removing battery for 5 minutes to recover)
    * kernel: updated to 3.2.81
    * kernel: added various idle power saving hacks
    * kernel: enabled all USB related drivers which were still disabled
    * kernel: enabled the SmartReflex driver (inactive by default, more info: https://pyra-handheld.com/boards/threads/smartreflex-on-pyra-and-pandora.77282/#post-1374315 )
    * kernel: it's now possible to change the voltage of the expansion port supply (or disable it) by using /proc/pandora/exp_power_mv . Note that the bootloaders still set it to 3V, but the kernel will disable it if nothing writes to exp_power_mv after a minute.
    * kernel: audio playback no longer interrupts recording
    * the screen no longer turns on if a button is pressed while the lid is closed (Zink)
    * xfce4-battery-plugin: now shows "time to full" while charging

Changes since SuperZaxxon 1.73

    2016-03-15 (SZ 1.74):
    * kernel: updated to 3.2.78
    * kernel: the vsync code has been rewritten: multiple programs can now wait for vsync, it now works correctly when LCD is off and TV-out is on
    * kernel: added a new custom adaptive vsync ioctl
    * kernel: added a new custom ioctl to read the line counter
    * kernel: changed the LCD timings to reduce the VFP<->vsync window. Possibly reduced flicker in 50Hz mode too.
    * kernel: enabled the xpad (xbox/xinput compatible gamepad) driver (no idea why it was off...)
    * kernel: it's now possible to map memory at virtual address 0 (might be useful for some emulators)
    * kernel: fixed a SD card read corruption (reported by dgame)
    * kernel: the default SGX driver should no longer crash when display is turned off (usually when lid is closed) and 3D program is running
    * SDL: now uses the new adaptive vsync when SDL_OMAP_VSYNC is enabled
    * bluez: /etc/bluetooth/audio.conf defaults changed to enable the socket API. Note that this disables the dbus API, so you may need to edit the file if you need it. See http://www.lightofdawn.org/blog/?viewDetailed=00031 for more info.
    * fixed bluetooth suspend (patch by urjaman)

    * udev: made USB devices accessible to main user by default, no need to edit udev rules any more

    2014-11-01:
    * updated zlib to 1.2.8 (some PNDs want newer version, version checks did not work before but now they do for some reason)
    * updated pixman to 0.32 "because I can", some desktop drawing operations might be a bit faster

    2014-10-20:
    * wpa-supplicant: updated to 2.2
    * added missing SGX driver file for 1GHz pandoras

    * updated less to 458
     
    2014-10-18 (SZ 1.62RC):
    * many system libraries have been updated: glib and gtk2 to latest version, several others to newer versions that are compatible with latest gtk. This may break some PNDs (mostly because of glib ABI changes, those PNDs will have to be recompiled), but will allow ports of new software. After this update completes it is highly recommended to reboot so that system services reload updated libs, otherwise there may be some instability.
    * changed default SGX driver to 4.03.00.02 for 1GHz units, for others it stays the same as before. It has been reported that reboot is sometimes needed after this update for driver to work properly.

    * kernel: updated to 3.2.61
    * kernel: SGX texture streaming module added to all drivers
    * scripts: make system layer usable again after tv-out is used

    2014-07-05:

    * openal: some NEON optimizations

    2014-05-04:
    * kernel: enabled bridge module
    * kernel: updated to 3.2.58 (as modversions changed because of network config change anyway)

    * kernel: wl1251: fixed ad-hoc functionality
    * kernel: backported some other OMAP fixes from later kernels that probably won't have visible effects
     
    2014-02-28:
    * pnd_run: fixed restore of fb0 to not result in black screen in some cases
     
    2014-01-22:

    2013-02-14:
    * SDL: Fixed bugs caused by previous changes

    2013-02-09:
    * Added sync before overclock related config changes, should reduce chances of data corruption after too much overclocking (EvilDragon)
    * SDL: Changed how apps without SDL_DOUBLEBUF are handled. They no longer draw directly to fb now as that causes flickering in many games, instead screen is only updated on SDL_UpdateRect() calls now (the same way "default" SDL does it).
