Running qtcreator
I just want to run Qt5's qtcreator to do UI work on OpenTrack?. The problem is my current development platforms are;
- A windows 7 game box. Grunty, but a crappy development environment. Also the platform I want to run OpenTrack? on.
- A headless Debian Linux box (minkirri). Very comfortable development env with full dev debs of Qt5 and OpenCV?.
It turns out qtcreate is a graphical IDE, and thus needs more than an ssh terminal to run. So things I tried are;
Install cygwin on the windows 7 box. I can run X11, ssh to the linux box, and run qcreator there! It doesn't work:
$ qtcreator libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast <...it just hangs with nothing happening, and needs ^C to exit> $ export LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose $ qtcreator libGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/tls/swrast_dri.so libGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/swrast_dri.so libGL: driver does not expose __driDriverGetExtensions_swrast(): /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/swrast_dri.so: undefined symbol: __driDriverGetExtensions_swrast libGL: Can't open configuration file /home/abo/.drirc: No such file or directory. libGL: Can't open configuration file /home/abo/.drirc: No such file or directory. libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast function is no-op <... nothing again, needs another ^C> $ export LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1 $ qtcreator function is no-op <... and still nothing...^C>
It's just not working at all. Thinking maybe cygwins GLX stuff is dodgey, I ran glxgears. It creates the window with the gears, but then proceeds to claim 50~2000 fps with no visible changes in the gears window at all. That's with and without LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1. So maybe the GLX stuff is a bit dodgey.
Install xrdp, tightvnc, and LXDE on the linux box. Run windows remote desktop to access it and get a whole linux desktop running on the linux box in a window on the windows box. It doesn't work there either::
$ insert stuff here.
