Qt/Qtopia on Nokia N800


Message 1 in thread

Hello all and Trolls,

I just got the last Nokia's Internet Tablet, N800. A nice piece of
hardware, running Linux (Debian-based)... and using Gtk+ as its
development platform.

So I was wondering, does anyone have any hint or link about a port
of Qt or Qtopia for the N800? I would really like being able to
code using C++/Qt for that thing.

Regards,

A friend of mine has the device as well (had to help him set up the  
development environment). As far as I can tell, nothing should stop  
regular Qt working on the device - it runs a 'real' X server, so a  
Qtopia port isn't needed. Hopefully, once you have the development  
environment (cross-compiler, etc) installed, it should be possible to  
compile Qt using it.

Of course the reality may be a little different, but since both the  
device and the emulator use X11, they shouldn't care whether  
applications use Gtk+ or Qt.

Regards,
James
