Bug Description

App markets like F-Droid and Android Market try to prevent app installation on devices that do not support required hardware features. Since we don't declare android.hardware.touchscreen, and this is implicitly needed by all Gingerbread apps, most apps are marked as incompatible.

We should declare all hardware features that are known working for a particular board, see http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-feature-element.html for details.
