[Coco] Run of RGB2VGA boards

[Kandur]

"There is at least one project using a BeagleBone Black for video 
conversion.  The TI SOC part has two PRUs (Programmable Realtime Unit) 
which offer 100% deterministic timing (no call stack, 1 clock per 
instruction).  At 200Mhz. these are fast enough to do video processing."

The ELEMENT14 beaglebone black Rev.C AM335X BB 
free shipping is selling on eBay for $51.80

The eMMC Flash is 4GB (as of 2014.05.21) in the Rev C.
The Processor: TI Sitara AM335x, 1GHz, 2000 MIPS  ARM® Cortex™-A8

What else do I need, to do the RGB to VGA conversion?
