i assume he was having the same problem i had last night. i happened
to be building qt-2.3.3. (btw, am i right that no patches are needed for this,
since no qte233-*.patch files are present in the opie/qt dir?)

i had to grab and build a copy of jpeg-6b -- (with "make CC=arm-linux-gcc", i
think), and then configure qt with -L, -R, and -I options all
pointing at the dir in which i'd built jpeg.

i had another nit later on -- the wiki instructions say to configure opie
with "configure -xplatform xxxx, where xxxx is sharp, ipaq, etc". but the
configure script wants xxxx to be of the form "blah-sharp-blah" -- it uses
what it finds between the hyphens.

after fixing all this (and doing a full clean/reconfigure on
everything), i got a clean build of everything. next step is to get it
running on my tuxscreen. it starts, but doesn't find the right screen
driver, i think. anyone else running opie on their tux? using a palmtop
environment seems like the right way to go, to me...
