+The full documentation is in the beignet-dev package.
+
+Summary of known issues:
+
+New hardware often requires new versions of beignet-opencl-icd, and
+sometimes also new versions of linux-image-amd64 / linux-image-i686-pae;
+for Debian stable, these can be found in -backports
+(https://backports.debian.org/Instructions/).
+
+In particular, if you have Haswell hardware and installed this package
+from jessie-backports, you probably also need a jessie-backports kernel.
+
+Discrete GPUs often disable the integrated GPU, preventing this package
+from working.  It may or may not be possible to re-enable it
+(https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/Optimus/).
+
+By default, no single OpenCL kernel is allowed to run for more than
+6 seconds, to prevent accidental hangs: if "dmesg | grep hangcheck"
+finds anything, this limit has been hit.  You can turn it off with
+"echo -n 0 > /sys/module/i915/parameters/enable_hangcheck" (as root).
