Single Application Device

sujeet_nayak
Hello,

Recently i bought Mini35 board that runs Linux 2.6.29.4 kernel + Qtopia.
As I am not a authentic Linux developer so, i need some advise,regarding
how to go about making mini2440 a single application device. I dont mind
the current kernel, but i need to run a single application(Qt based). So i
need to know how to remove the Qtopia application framework that runs as
defult from the file system. 

Also i have one problem with ping/netstat.
After connecting the network cable, i logged in using root.
Every thing seems to be fine. But I could not ping my own computer(vista
64) from mini.

I would have thought if you want to run a Qt based application then you
would want to leave Qtopia installed.  But, then again I am a beginner. 

You are pinging 192.168.1.230?  No problems here with XP.  For the Linux
box I had to go in and put the MAC address in.

Good luck.

Thank for reply.

Mini2440 connected to my laptop using cross-cable could not ping
192.168.1.1(IP Address of laptop). But when i connected mini to router
using straight cable, it could ping my laptop!!!  But in both the cases my
laptop could ping to mini. 

Qtopia Issue: I know Qtopia is a application development framework using
Qt. I will be developing Qt application as a standalone application(NOT a
Qtopia application or service). Hence I need to remove the unnecessary
stuffs from root file system.

OOPS! Firewall created all problem. Fixed.

Hi sujeet_nayak,

To use your board as a single application device you don't need Qtopia. You
can easily build your own rootfs with QT support using buildroot
(http://buildroot.uclibc.org/).
