How to install QTopia ?
Message 1 in thread
I'm using a Lenovo T61 with Debian Etch installed. When the OS was
completely installed, I started Terminal and wrote /apt-get install
qt4-dev-tools qt4-docs qt4-designer/. When this installation was complete
I downloaded /qtopia-core-opensource-src-4.3.3.tar.gz/, and installed this
with the following commands:
I extracted this file to ~/Desktop/qtopia-core-opensource-src-4.3.3/
./configure -embedded generic/
make
sudo make install
Then added the PATH to ~/.bashrc
When this was completed, I downloaded qt-x11-opensource-src-4.3.3.tar.gz
and Installed this as described in the INSTALL-file.
I extracted this file to the ~/Desktop/qt-x11-opensource-src-4.3.3/ directory
./configure
make
sudo make install
Then added the PATH to ~/.bashrc
Then I went back to the ~/qtopia-core-opensource-src-4.3.3/ directory and
wrote
./configure -qvfb
make
Then I went to the ~/qt-x11-opensource-src-4.3.3/tools/qvfb/ directory and
wrote
make
./qvfb
Now a "Virtual framebuffer 240x320bpp Display :0 Rotate 0" started. If I
now try to check if framebuffer is installed, I enter
/usr/local/Trolltech/QtopiaCore-4.3.3-generic/examples/qtopiacore/framebuffer/
and wrote
sudo qmake -project
sudo qmake framebuffer.pro
sudo make
./framebuffer
Then I got this error message "Error: cannot open framebuffer device: No
such file or directory"
The same error message appeared if I wrote ./framebuffer -qws
The same error message appeared if I wrote ./framebuffer -qws -display QVFb:0
Do you know what the problem might be? Do I install everything in the
correct order ? Or do you have a detailed description on how to install
this the right way ? And I'm totally new at linux.

Have you tried running one of the other examples, such as the Analog Clock
example in examples/widgets/analogclock with the -qws option? Does that
appear in QVFb?
