Hy guys. I need help answering a question.

First of all let me say what I want to do: I have a rootfs, a toolchain and a device (not a Nokia device). I want to configure MADDE to help me crosscompile for ARM and create QT apps that I can run on my device. So far so good, but what if my toolchain / rootfs is x86 based? Can I setup MADDE to help me create x86 based QT apps, that I will then run on my x86 device? As far as I could find there is no way specifying that the target you create with mad-admin has a certain arch. I've tried to do that and used a x86 rootfs and a x86 cross toolchain. The target got created ok. When I try "mad gcc --version" I get the correct one, but when I try "mad gcc -Wall test.c" for eg, I get complains cause some ARM options get passed to gcc. I guess it expects to find an ARM compiler and does not bother to check it out. Am I right?

Thanks
