[Ltib] Fwd: iMX27 and Xorg+GTK

[Hamilton Vera]

Hi masters.

I am working on iMX27 ADS, my goal is to deploy Xorg/X11+Gtk.

I've found some articles and tried some how-tos, but no success yet;

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/ltib/2009-01/msg00066.html
http://fs.bluewind.it/?cat=1
http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/docs/
http://www.libertatia.org/blog/?p=66 ( this one looks pretty good, but
i have no spec files to build packages, but still working on my own
spec)

If somebody is facing the same difficulties, please get in touch.

I am wondering something, a simple Gtk based application needs lots of
libs, for example:

What are you guys using to make interfaces to this kind of hardware?
Java? Web-Based application ( i.e iMX27 IP Camera)?

Although working on Gtk, I don't know if it is the best environment to
this hardware.

Just to make it clear, I am not a developer ( just a ordinary sysadmin
:) ), I am worried about the size of the image/filesystem and the load
to run this kind of application.

Thanks in advance, sorry about the poor English.
