Hardware compatability is **hard**.

Testing with each and every hardware piece that exists on the planet is an
impossible task, so developers make **their** hardware work and that is already
a good start. They also make sure that it works with emulation, so at least
**everybody** can try in an emulator.

Now, if you want your particular hardware to work, contribution is very
welcome !
