Greetings,
A while back I put a preliminary feed of QPE packages for X11 at http://www.handhelds.org/feeds/qpe-x to allow people to run QPE applications on top of X11 using the standard Qt/X11 library (see the INSTALL file at this URL). I wanted to get some feedback on the extent people are using it, its usability under X, etc.
The purpose behind QPE/X is to see if it is feasible to use X as the common windowing system for Linux on iPAQ for all applications, as opposed to one set of X based apps and a separate set of frame buffer based apps using QWS. The important thing to remember is that I made no code changes (only #ifdef's) to get the QPE apps running under X11, so extensive changes to QPE are not required for this to work. Before continuing on to the next step of smoothing some rough edges, I wanted to gauge people's interest in using and/or working on QPE/X.
What do you think? Send your response to the appropriate mailing list(s).
Thanks,
Tom
