This compiles fast but when I install the update on the phone it runs at 98% cpu and doesn't respond to screen touches. I did have to fudge a bit regarding the two required 32 bit libraries libmpfr1ldbl_XXX_i386.deb and libgmp3c2_XXX_i386.deb (I got an Ubunutu version of
libmpfr - I am on Debian Squeeze). The README says to configure the build using '../qtmoko/configure -force-build-qt -device neo' which I changed to the obvious '../qtmoko/configure -force-build-qt -device gta04'.</div><div><br></div><div>Can anyone give me some hints on what I have done wrong?</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks</div><div><br></div><div>Kev</div></div></body></html>
