For use embedded qt, and embedded gtk.

Apparently Trolltech already has embedded QT running on QNX so it may be
that it’s already done. You should talk to them for pricing.

if you are considering qt/embedded for a commercial product, you
should talk to trolltech for pricing, like Kris said.

Since trolltech’s port is not for opensource, if you are considering
an open source project, you will still need to do the port yourself.
QSSL may be able to help on the /dev/fb in this case?

Actually, from what I remember of Trolltech’s licensing, it’s only free for
Open Source X11 projects. Any of their other platform ports are $$.

You can just use the “direct” mode already provided by all graphics driver
to do this. That is what TrollTech is doing now for Qt/E.

I download freeware version QT and tried to compile this.

The QT compiled good, but the frame buffer required a SYS V sharped memory.
shmget and other.

I had written a basic wrapper for sysV shared memory to map onto posix
shared memory that should get things working for you (hopefully).
