Qt on the BeagleBoard
This wiki is to share with you my progress with Qt and the BeagleBoard. The OS I used in the BeagleBoard is "Angstrom":http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/ . I don't explain how to install Angstrom in the board because you can find a lot of useful guide. At this time the last Qt version is 4.7.1 . I'm working on a Slackware Linux 13.1 .
I found a lot of guide for install Qt on the beagle but all of them tell to compile Angstrom and I wanted to avoid this.
Procedure for Qt Embedded (without X11)
Here I explain how to get Angstrom and Qt without X server. Next I'll explain how to do with X11.
First of all I downloaded Angstrom image and SDK from "Narcissus":http://narcissus.angstrom-distribution.org/ . This is how to get the right image and SDK from that website:
- select the right board (beagleboard)
- select "Advanced"
- select "Unstable" (I don't know why there isn't a stable version but I have never got problem form the unstable version)
- check "regular"
- "udev"
- "tar.gz"
- "No"
- On the SDK selection set "Full SDK for the generated filesystem"
- select your architecture. I selected "32 bit intel"
- "console only"
- on the "Additional packages selection" you can check all you want. I selected: Toolchain, Native (on-target) SDK, All kernel modules, PowerVR SGX drivers for OMAP3 and some network packages as Apache, ssh ecc…
That's all. Now press "Build Me" and wait a lot of time until you can download the image (something like random-91140962-image-beagleboard.tar.bz2 ) and the SDK (something like Angstrom-2010.12-narcissus-beagleboard-i686-random-098bb031-image-sdk.tar.gz). You don't need to download the SD image . I won't explain how to put the Angstrom image on the Beagle (you only need to extract it on the SD).
Extract the SDK in this way: tar -C / -xvzf Angstrom-2010.12-narcissus-beagleboard-i686-random-098bb031-image-sdk.tar.gz
now you have the SDK on /usr/local/angstrom .
Extract "Qt source":http://get.qt.nokia.com/qt/source/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.1.tar.gz where you want .
