Zaurus Development with Qtopia

Posted by timothy on from the squash-it-in dept.

Radical Rad writes "There is a great article by Bruce Forsberg at Linux Gazette for anyone wanting to develop for the Zaurus platform. Using a mileage calculator as an example, he covers step by step setting up the Qtopia SDK, compiling, testing with the Zaurus emulator, and finally cross-compiling and creating the distribution package. He covers all the bases including compile-time environment variables and the control file for the ipkg."

  1. Gtk PDA Environment (GPE) by Paul+Jakma · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Or what about the even cooler (but not as mature) GTK+ 2 based GPE? X based so when at home you can have your apps display to your desktop and make use of a real keyboard. Though the graffiti-like Xstroke app GPE uses is excellent and so you might not miss your desktop keyboard :).
