It may need -to be modified for other platforms. -<p> <ol type=1> -<li> Unpack the archive if you have not done so already -<p> <pre> - cd <anywhere> - gunzip qt-embedded-commercial-VERSION.tar.gz # uncompress the archive - tar xf qt-embedded-commercial-VERSION.tar # unpack it -</pre> - -Replace <tt>VERSION</tt> with the TQt/Embedded version number throughout. -<p> This document assumes that the archive is installed as <tt>~/qt-embedded-commercial-VERSION</tt>. -<li> Compile the TQt/Embedded library and examples. -<p> <pre> - cd ~/qt-embedded-commercial-VERSION - export TQTDIR=~/qt-embedded-commercial-VERSION - ./configure - make -</pre> - -<p> The configuration system is designed to allow platform-specific options -to be added, but in general all Linux systems which have framebuffer -support can use the "linux-generic-g++" platform. -The configuration system also supports cross-compilers: -to build on Linux/x86 for the Linux/MIPSEL target, you would use: -<pre> - ./configure -embedded mips -</pre> - -<p> Only a small number of configurations are predefined. -You can create your own custom configuration by adding new files -to the <tt>mkspecs/qws/</tt> directory. Use existing similar configurations -as a starting point. -<p> <b>Note</b>: Due to a bug in the configure script, cross-compiling on -a little-endian machine (e.g. x86) for a big-endian processor -(e.g. PowerPC) will use the host's endianness instead of the -target's. Workaround: after running configure, and before running -make, edit <tt>$TQTDIR/include/ntqconfig.h</tt> and change the definition of -<tt>TQ_BYTE_ORDER</tt>. -<p> <li> Enable framebuffer support. -<p> You may need to recompile your kernel to enable the framebuffer. -This document does not describe how to do this; the -<a href="emb-framebuffer-howto.html">Framebuffer HOWTO page</a> -contains a short description. (You should see -a penguin logo at boot time when the frame buffer is enabled.) -<p> For Matrox G100/G200/G400 use the matrox frame buffer driver. -<p> For NVidia TNT cards use the nvidia frame buffer driver. -<p> For Mach64 and most other cards, use the vesafb driver. -<p> Note that some cards are only supported in VGA16 mode, this will -not work with the current version of TQt/Embedded, since VGA/16 is -not yet supported. You may need to upgrade your kernel, or even -switch to an experimental kernel. -<p> The frame buffer must also be enabled with a boot parameter. See -<tt>/usr/src/linux/Documentation/fb</tt> for details. -<p> The <tt>fbset</tt> program, which should be included in Linux distributions, -may be used to switch video modes without rebooting the system. The -video mode active when the server is started will be used. (8-bit -modes are still experimental.) <b>Note</b>: <tt>fbset</tt> does not work -with the vesafb driver. -<p> <li> Change permissions. -<p> To run TQt/Embedded, you need write access to the framebuffer device -<tt>/dev/fb0</tt>. -<p> You also need read access to the mouse device. (Note that -<tt>/dev/mouse</tt> is normally a symbolic link; the actual mouse device -must be readable.) -<p> <li> How to run the demonstration program. -<p> Log into a virtual console and do this: -<p> <pre> - cd ~/qt-embedded-commercial-VERSION/examples/launcher - ./start-demo -</pre> - -<p> <li> Miscellaneous troubleshooting and known bugs. -<p> To kill gpm, run the following command as root: -<p> <pre> - gpm -k -</pre> - -<p> In some cases, if the server does not work, it will work when run as root. -<p> Show processes using the framebuffer: -<p> <pre> - fuser -v /dev/fb0 -</pre> - -<p> Kill such processes: -<pre> - fuser -vk /dev/fb0 -</pre> - -or harsher: -<pre> - fuser -k -KILL /dev/fb0 -</pre> - -<p> Show existing semaphores: -<pre> - ipcs -</pre> - -<p> Remove semaphores: -<pre> - ipcrm -</pre> - -<p> The communication between client and server is done through the -named pipe <tt>/tmp/qtembedded-username/TQtEmbedded-0</tt>; sometimes it may need to be deleted -(e.g. if you run TQt/Embedded with root privileges then later as an unprivileged user). -<p> <li> Customization. -<p> The TQt/Embedded library can be reduced in size by -<a href="emb-features.html">removing unnecessary features</a>. -<p> <li> This document shows how to use TQt/Embedded with the Linux framebuffer. For -development and debugging purposes it is often easier to use the <a href="emb-tqvfb.html">TQt/Embedded virtual framebuffer</a> instead. -<p> </ol> -<p> -<!-- eof --> -<p><address><hr><div align=center> -<table width=100% cellspacing=0 border=0><tr> -<td>Copyright © 2007 -<a href="troll.html">Trolltech</a><td align=center><a href="trademarks.html">Trademarks</a> -<td align=right><div align=right>TQt 3.3.8</div> -</table></div></address></body> -</html> |
