Xqt

[Anonymous]

Oops, last two posts mine

Looking at it again it should resolve to /home/QtPalmtop/lib without my adding those lines however it seems to only be searching /home/root/usr/lib

The LD_LIBRARY_PATH is set and exported correctly in each .profile, qpe.sh and s99local (etc/rc.d/rc5.d/s99local) and still when I open a Konsole and do $LD_LIBRARY_PATH the variable is empty. I set it there and then on the prompt and the xclients I want to use work. This is driving me crazy!

What is the last shell set to for root (or zaurus - does OZ use zaurus?) in /etc/passwd?
If it\'s /bin/sh then the .profile isn\'t used, set it to /bin/bash and see if that helps.

Id\' be tempted to just stick the following as the very last line in the qpe.sh script:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/QtPalmtop/lib

Thanks for everybodys\' help - I created a new .profile file in the /home/zaurus directory and added the path in there - everything seems to work now.

Yeah I\'ve got this problem too - the bug is noted on their sourceforge site (although the its not a noted as a rotation bug rather that it seems to be 320x240 on a portrait display).
The dimensions seem to be correct but the display is rotated. Time to install the rotation app methinks to see if that fixes it.

Has anyone else with a 5600 had a problem where the X-display is
rotated?  Actually, its a bit messed up too.  I get the display rotated
and tiled as if it thinks its displaying to a 240 wide screen but since
its rotated, it tiles and displays the first 80 pixels a second time...

I have a keymap problem, for example I can\'t get brackets (and lots of fn+keypresses give me numbers rather than the symbols on the keyboard).

Anyone have any suggestions? I wonder whether this is something to do with the fact that I\'m running on OZ (and therefore don\'t run as zaurus).

Edit: I could have sworn that I checked it - anyway fn + shift + the key in question will do brackets. R looks great.

can someone please explain, technically, what the Xqt package consists of?  Is it an X server for the 5x00, plus gtk+, or is there something else?

I have some GTK+ apps © that I want to port to the Zaurus, and I\'m a bit confused if I should be bothering with an \"X-model\" install, or perhaps going for some sort of porting effort to get it working in GTKfb, which I\'m not sure is even working on the Zaurus?  If not, I guess I\'d add that to my list of things to contribute to, if its needed ...

Xqt is an X server (and display I assume all rolled into one - forgive me if I\'m getting the terminology confused here) which writes to a Qt window rather than to the framebuffer (like the old Xfree86 package did) or to a VNC client (like Qtopia-X does).

It doesn\'t come with GTK+ (though I think these libs are available in the feed).

I\'m using Xqt with my C760 and the cacko 1.19 rom, and it works perfectly with gtk1.2 applications (including the new Dillo 0.8 ipk from the pdax feed). What I haven\'t managed yet is to get any gtk2 apps working. I\'ve copied across gtk2, pango, atk, and gnome libraries from my old cacko X11 installation, and I can get abiword, gnumeric, gqview, and sodipodi to almost run - they draw their windows on the screen and then crash. When starting they give a gdk warning saying \"The X server advertises that RENDER support is present but fails to supply the necessary pixmap support. In other words it is buggy\". When they crash they give an X windows system error, either BadValue or RenderBadPicture.
I think that the problem may be related to Pango, because if I temporarily delete the /usr/lib/pango folder that contains the different pango modules then gqview will sort of run; the window comes up with a tool bar and the gqview splash image which can be zoomed, but there is no text in the menus and the window geometry is strange.
Now I\'m stuck. Can anybody suggest anything? Could the problem be in a configuration file for pango or gdk?

If I could get abiword and gnumeric to run, then I would have found in Xqt+Cacko qtopia the perfect solution for my zaurus. Hancom sheet and word are too lightweight for my needs, but I gave up on the X11 rom because I need PIM functionality, and KO/Pi is perfect  for this.

Has anyone got any further insight into getting abiword and gnumeric to run?

Hi,

I tried all the suggestions in this forum (esp page 2). I can't get Xqt running properly
on my 5500 (OZ 3.3.6 pre1 with oz-compat).
The Xserver starts. When I trie to start xeyes I get a scrambeled output,
three eyes, and a cursor cross that can't get moved properly.

Has anyone any idea?

Thanks

Hey,

you have to install xqt-server 0.8 instead of 0.9. You will find that old server ipkg on the sourceforge page of Xqt.

Very strange, on my machine (sl5500 with OZ 3.3.6pre1 admittedly) /opt/QtPalmtop/lib is the first entry in LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

The ipk seems to have the files tarred as ./opt/QtPalmtop/lib which seems to get added to LD_LIBRARY_PATH
