Hi guys,
I've been roaming this forum for the past 4-5 days and I really liked the idea of developing some own applications for my Kobo Glo. My ultimate goal would be to create a more comfortable pdf-reader but that is still far away :-)
I have next to none linux- and Qt-background except some playing around a few years ago and the last few days. I do however have some experience with C/C++. I run Ubuntu 12.04, installed Qt 4.8.0 (configured for ARM) and use arm-linux-guneabi-g++ for compiling. I can run standard C-executables compiled by me (like "hello world" and stuff) but as soon as I start using Qt I get stuck...
For example: If I download sergeyvl12's KoboLauncher (http://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=201632) and use his binaries everything is fine and the application has no errors. But if I use his source files, compile them (qmake + make) and try to run them my Glo kind of freezes. In the telnet-console i get
but then nothing else happens. I suspect it has something to do with the differences showing up in what i get from the 'file' command:
KoboLauncher compiled by me:
sergeyvl12's binaries:
It would be really swell if someone could help me by telling me if my suspicions are right and how I have to reconfigure Qt/qmake or my compiler. :help:
And always remember: linux-newb here, so if you have the time: I am in no way opposed to learn what BuildID[sha1] means :D
