unable to build on ubuntu about kterm HOT 13 CLOSED

There is no libvte on kindle, so I build kterm with static libvte.a. This is why my binary is so big – it includes vte library. This is probably why your binary doesn't work. You would have to copy libvte to kindle.
Another question is whether you use proper cross-compiler. This also may cause troubles.
If you just need this change, I can compile it for you.

I would VERY much like an EABI 4 verison of that static libvte.a. It's not in buildroot sadly :(
That would enable development for all devices.

Deja vu?
Any tips on compilation and exact libvte revision to compile GREATLY appreciated.

Here is libvte.a from my build of vte-0.24.3 for cortex-a8. You can also compile kterm with newer versions of vte.

vte-0.24.3 right... thanks for the version num. Every little clue helps to get this backported.

I believe I fixed warning: ignoring return value of in last commit. I can't test it because my version of gcc (4.7.1) doesn't show them.

@bfabiszewski yes I am just trying to recompile with that one small change you pointed out yesterday, if you could make me a build it would be great. I didn't realize I should have been cross compiling here (I've never been too good at compiling things). Thanks

from kterm.

Here it is. Hope it will work for you.
UPDATE: This is no longer needed. Kterm supports landscape mode natively since version 2.0. Please download latest build.

just tested it - it works great for my use case (a kindleberry pi)

from kterm.

Im gonna try tht libvte.a on a lower device... might work..

or there might be blood on the floor... cant hurt to try

from kterm.

finally got my TC to accept all the libs from the kindle as "native" libs... perhaps I can FINALLY get this built for the DX, 3, 4... here's hoping.

from kterm.

Great! I gave up with Kindle 3 build, as I don't have the device and it requires totally different TC

from kterm.

Is there a way to make this build work with the Pw3?

from kterm.

I don't have PW3 but some users reported that it works on this device. You may try to get help at Kindle Developer's Corner.
