# OpenGL ES 2.0, but not OpenGL 2.0
# The ARM11 implements Version 6 of the ARM architecture, which due to its age is no longer supported by several popular versions of Linux, including Ubuntu.
# The available memory, 128-224MiB, after subtracting 32-128MiB for graphics memory, is far below the stated minimum requirement of 768MiB to run the Fedora operating system.<ref> [http://fedoraproject.org/get-fedora Fedora, What will I need?]</ref>
# The following are not expected to work at launch, if at all: Adobe Flash, Firefox, Ubuntu, Gnome or KDE desktops, OpenOffice, accelerated X-Windows, youtube in browser, Eclipse IDE, MPEG2, VC1, AVS, MJPG, VP6, VP7, VP8/WebM, RV, Theora, WMV9, Dolby with AAC, AC3, VDPAU, GPGPU, OpenCL, Hi10P, OpenGL 2.0.
# Compilation speed is expected to be many times slower than on an x86 PC. Broadcom employee JamesM reported that a C/C++ compilation "took ages". Broadcom employee Dom C. reported that compilation was about 2 or 3 times slower than compilation running on a QEMU emulation of the ARM processor. Larger compilations are at risk of running out of memory or swapping excessively.
