any one got it working?
wait long time..

Re: [REQUEST] Qt 4.7.3 in maemo n900
 

Wait for CSSU update, it has 4.7.4 in it

Re: [REQUEST] Qt 4.7.3 in maemo n900
 

so can i know when does the next update arrive?? approx day?? awaiting it for a long time..

Re: [REQUEST] Qt 4.7.3 in maemo n900
 

i wish N900 could adopt Qt environment so that every N9 app could be easily ported to N900.great news about CSSU eh .thanks freemangordon.nice news

Re: [REQUEST] Qt 4.7.3 in maemo n900
 

I know you got it running in your n900
LOL

Re: [REQUEST] Qt 4.7.3 in maemo n900
 

he next update will be very soon ;)

Re: [REQUEST] Qt 4.7.3 in maemo n900
 

Are you sure that this time the selection and transparent things won't get screwed up like it was the last time Qt was updated? Because freoffice got unusable, all selections in all parts of the system got screwed and some apps that use transparent backgrounds lost their backgrounds.

I'm not sure if this is a good move.

Re: [REQUEST] Qt 4.7.3 in maemo n900
 

If there are changes in header files (e.g. constant values changes), rebuild of all applications should fix that. But if there are interface and behaviour changes, it may be more sensible to keep sloted QT installation for new applications, which is not ideal from the point of memory usage.

Re: [REQUEST] Qt 4.7.3 in maemo n900
 

Just checked Freoffice with Qt 4.7.4, no visible problems (i.e. selection works) . Are you aware of any other applications which have had problems with Qt 4.7.4 (besides jspeed)?

Re: [REQUEST] Qt 4.7.3 in maemo n900
 

Wow, thank you!

I'll list you what was the problems I found the last time Qt was updated to 4.7.2:

Freoffice: I wasn't able to select anything within its text editor (yes, I use FreOffice as a text editor from time to time- I like to suffer).
But if you say the text is ok and the selection within the text is ok, wonderful!

Selection, in general, throughout the phone got messed up, as in, for instance, FileBox:
Open filebox and then click the button in the right side of the button with a house (which will turn it a text box with the full path of that directory) and the try to select all the text by hitting the end and grabbing till the start: The section won't appear. I knew it was there because after hitting any key all the "selected" text was gone, but the "blue" behind the text wouldn't appear. And this behaviour was all around the phone.

Now, about the transparent backgrounds I only remember this case:
How it was supposed to be:
http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...0&postcount=55
How it turned to be:
http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...4&postcount=89

Oh, and again, thank you very very much for your work |:)

Re: [REQUEST] Qt 4.7.3 in maemo n900
 

Filebox: checked, selection works
Blubbels: don't get what exactly problem is, but if you mean that score is missing, I can confirm it works on my device with Qt 4.7.4

Re: [REQUEST] Qt 4.7.3 in maemo n900
 

Then it is all perfect!

Thank you very much! |:D

@freemangordon
I building of it from your clone

Re: Qt 4.7.4 in maemo n900
 

Compile is quite slow...already 3 hours, still dpkg-buildpackage..

Re: Qt 4.7.4 in maemo n900
 

DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=parallel=n

where n is number of your CPU cores ;)

Re: Qt 4.7.4 in maemo n900
 

which file?

Re: Qt 4.7.4 in maemo n900
 

c
just enter in scratchbox?

Re: Qt 4.7.4 in maemo n900
 

Can you tell me where did you get source from (git?)?
debian files?

Re: Qt 4.7.4 in maemo n900
 

stop current build with ctrl-c and type
$DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=parallel=n dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -b -nc

ask google what those options mean

EDIT:
$ is shell prompt, do not type it

Re: Qt 4.7.4 in maemo n900
 

here

ten chars

Re: Qt 4.7.4 in maemo n900
 

I was trying to create packages of QT 4.7.3 targeting diablo using 4.7.0 debian definitions.

./configure && make worked, but dpkg-buildpackage fails to build.

Can you post the whole dpkg-buildpackage line?

EDIT: I guess you've added the line on previous page, so my question is not relevant any more.

Re: Qt 4.7.4 in maemo n900
 

my cpu core is 2, so change n to 2?
by the way, thanks

Re: Qt 4.7.4 in maemo n900
 

2 is safe.


By adding +1 (or +2) to the number of cores you might get some benefit due to the heavy I/O during the build process. The idea is to have more processes per core, to ensure the CPU usage is high even when there is a delay during I/O operations.

Don't forget to set governor to performance. During compilations, CPU frequently scales down frequency. The ondemand governor takes some time to realize that frequency needs to be increased.

Re: Qt 4.7.4 in maemo n900
 

still slow
maybe need overnight, i went sleep

Re: Qt 4.7.4 in maemo n900
 

after setup, used up all rootfs..

Re: Qt 4.7.4 in maemo n900
 

Yep, sure, dbg packages are pretty large.

Re: Qt 4.7.4 in maemo n900
 

And probably not optified, why install dbg packages?

Re: Qt 4.7.4 in maemo n900
 

I hope he is optifying now, if he read my PM :D

Re: Qt 4.7.4 in maemo n900
 

everything is fine now...

Re: Qt 4.7.4 in maemo n900
 

I'd uninstall them rather than optify them, why would you need all -dbg packages installed?

Re: Qt 4.7.4 in maemo n900
 

No way to uninstall before first optify(or rm, but mv is a safest bet if the enthusiastic guy mistypes something), there is no space on rootfs dpkg to use while uninstalling. In fact apt-get remove dbg* was last in series ;)

Re: Qt 4.7.4 in maemo n900
 

I guess they are optified ...by the way, i am a noob
LOL
