I tried to natively compile a GUI program in X/Qt. However, during the make process, it often popped up a window saying that memory of the workspace was too low (suggesting me to close X/Qt). Frequently X/Qt was automatically shut down due to insufficient memory. Although I did enable 256Mb swap space, it was hardly used by more than half as I monitored.
Anybody had experience with this. Is such a compiling prohibitive in nature due to Z's memory limitation? |

I understand this is an Qtopia problem. I works for me now after putting the following line in the .xinitrc
CODE export TMPDIR=/mnt/card/tmp su -c 'mount /dev/mmcda1 `cat /etc/debroot`/mnt/card' Interesting enough, previously it didn't work for me as I mount bind the card to a chrooted location /mnt/sd instead of /mnt/card. Seems the mount points need to be coherent inside and outside chroot enviroment, which is beyond my expectation. |
