********************************************************************************
+Linux Image V2.6 Beta 2 (June 30, 2016)
+
+- U-Boot boot loader:
+ - update do_patch_ddr_size to parse ivt and dcd
+ - synchronize/improve memory options
+ - net: increase maximum frame size to accommodate VLAN packets
+ - update: make set<media>update self contained
+ - increase maximum temperature for booting linux
+- Linux kernel:
+ - mxc_v4l2_capture: Allow clock setting for de-interlaced video input
+ - media: Add support for ADV7280 decoder driver as found on ACA
+ - add MCP2515 SPI CAN controller to device tree
+ - can: mcp251x: fix resume when device is down
+- Linux user-space:
+ - trdx-extra.inc: add iperf3 to all images
+ - florence: update to latest version 0.5.4, build without sound and drop
+ gstreamer 0.10 dependency
+ - images: i.mx 6 don't deploy gstreamer xvimagesink, xvinfo
+ - gpioconfig: fix pkg_postrm
+- OpenEmbedded build system:
+ - linux-toradex-fsl-rt: Added a real-time kernel recipe for 3.14.52
+ - further clean-up update.sh update script
+ - angstrom-qt5-x11-image: add a recipe which deploys qt5 and starts a demo
+
+- sources git.toradex.com tag Colibri_iMX6_LinuxImageV2.6Beta2_20160701
+ - repository linux-toradex branch toradex_imx_3.14.52_1.1.0_ga
+ - repository u-boot-toradex branch 2015.04-toradex
+
+Known Issues:
+- updating Colibri iMX6DL from V2.6 Beta 1 manually entering 'patch_ddr_size'
+ from within U-Boot is required to gain access to full 512MB RAM
+- some USB Thumb drives don't work well in U-Boot
+- connecting an analogue mic to the on module codec resets the codec, so that
+ neither headphone out nor mic in works anymore. Workaround: Have mic
+ connected before boot or change the output source between DAC/LineIn
+- on first boot the resizing process adversely affects system performance for
+ the first few minutes until completed
+- Display resolution can be set for some output configurations, set the U-Boot
+ environment variable vidargs accordingly.
+- X uses only the fb0 device
+- Ethernet aka TFTP update requires manual splitting of the root.ext3 file
+ which can be taken care of by the -c argument of our update.sh script.
+- License texts do not get deployed to the root file system.
