I am running Kubuntu 6.06. I have installed "g++", "make", and several opengl packages.
when running " ,/conflgure -xshape" I get the message.Code:
Looking at the "configure" options I findmy question is where do I go to get the necessary packages?Code:
Thanks
It should be available in one of the X11 packages in your Linux distribution tree. AFAIR it is resposible (mostly?) for manipulating cursor shapes and Qt uses in (only?) in Designer while dragging widgets from the toolbox.
Following your suggestion I went to
http://packages.debian.org/testing/devel/qt4-dev-tools
for a list of packages which solved that problem.
but when I run "qmake examples.pro" I getI find "qmake" in "/usr/Trolltech/Qt-4.1.4/binQuote:
pete@newCompaq:/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.1.4/examples$ qmake examples.pro Failure to open file: /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.1.4/examples/Makefile
Unable to generate makefile for: examples.pro
pete@newCompaq:/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.1.4/examples$
My "bash_profile" isI don't understand why "qmake" isn't found.Quote:
# ~/.bash_profile: executed by bash(1) for login shells.
# see /usr/share/doc/bash/examples/startup-files for examples.
# the files are located in the bash-doc package.
# the default umask is set in /etc/login.defs
#umask 022
# include .bashrc if it exists
if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
. ~/.bashrc
fi
# set PATH so it includes user's private bin if it exists
if [ -d ~/bin ] ; then
PATH=~/bin:"${PATH}"
fi
PATH=/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.1.4/bin:$PATH
export PATH
fi
Any help would be most appreciated
qmake works, but it can't open /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.1.4/examples/Makefile. Check your access rights.
The owner of "usr" is "root"
I am able to rus designer from a terminal in my home directory.
User "pete" doesn't have write access to /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.1.4/*. So copy the desired example for example to your home dir and play around with the example there.
Alternatively you could give write access to the examples directory or play around as root but I wouldn't recommend either of these latter alternatives.. :p
shouldn't the "user" have access to the "usr" directory?
can I change ownership to it?
I am unable to compile my .pro files for the same reason.
No, because then he would be able to mess up the whole system.Quote:

Thanks, I really have a lot to learn. Thanks, Have to go now.
PATH only tells the interpreter where to look for commands without an explicit path. And "access" is not the same as "write permission" -- you had problems with the latter.Quote:

Qt-3 no problem. I know it goes to /usr/share while Qt-4 goes to /usr/local but share is "root" all the way accross as is local.
I don't remember this problems when I loaded Qt-4.1.1. (I don't think I was using opengl then.)
I know I was able to compile the examples from /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.1.1/examples as I have them on my backup disks.
As I said Qt-4 designer, which is in the same directory as qmake, loads from a terminal in my home directory.
I have also installed KDevelop. It can't find qmake either.
I don't think the problem is permissionOk, I'm back. I don't know why but "qmake" is now working as it should on my stuff. I still can't use it on any of the Qt-4 examples however.Quote:
QMake has two modes, one mode for generating project files based on
some heuristics, and the other for generating makefiles. Normally you
shouldn't need to specify a mode, as makefile generation is the default
mode for qmake, but you may use this to test qmake on an existing project
Run it as root.Quote:

I am able to compile several of the "sub-examples" ok except there are no code elements in "2dpainting" in "opengl" examples and when I run "textures" it automatically logs me out and I have to log in again.
I know I never had any of this stuff in Qt-4.1.1, but I am happy as I can get an with my work. Thanks for your patience.
You probably have a broken OpenGL installation in your system. I doubt Qt has anything to do with this. As for the linking errros -- do you have Qt compiled in debug mode?
I don't know about debug in compiling Qt. I had to load a bunch of "debug" packages thou.
A complete intallation of Linux was done last week end.
Once I got the modules listed in the URL I sent you from Debian, The only switch I used was the "-xshape" . I
do use "opengl" in one of my programs.
I use "ddd" or "KDevelop" for debugging.
My ".pro" file iswhich works fine.Code:
