Hi All,

I hope you can help. I felt I was spamming the Technology Preview thread with dev type questions, so I have started a new thread.

Anyhoo, I've got my first Qt app working, it deploys and I can run it from X-Terminal, but I can't get it to deploy to the N900 and display as an Icon to run it directly.

Here's what I have done.

I followed DanielWilm's instructions on this page: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...4&postcount=28 and also Too's instructions in this post http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=117

My source code is attached.

When I compile I do the following -

Code:

mad dh_make --createorig --single -e s.l@gmail.com -c gpl
mad qmake
mad dpkg-buildpackage
mad remote -r wwcalc send ../wwcalc_0.1-1_armel.deb
mad remote -r wwcalc install wwcalc_0.1-1_armel.deb 
mad remote -r wwcalc run dpkg -L wwcalc

All commands execute without errors (so far as I can see).

After that last command I get the following -

Code:

/usr
/usr/bin
/usr/bin/wwcalc
/usr/sbin
/usr/share
/usr/share/doc
/usr/share/doc/wwcalc
/usr/share/doc/wwcalc/changelog.Debian.gz
/usr/share/doc/wwcalc/copyright
/usr/share/doc/wwcalc/README.Debian
/usr/share/icons
/usr/share/icons/hicolor
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/apps
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/apps/wwcalc.png

But still....no icon on the N900

I know little of nothing about MAKEFILEs and I suspect that may be my downfall.

Fingers crossed that someone can help.

Also - sorry to be a pain, but if you think you can help please don't assume I know anything

Sorry, but idiot proof steps would be a great help!

I'd be more than happy to put together a guide for the Madde wiki FAQ once I get my head around this....

Thanks,

Shep
