            So far so great.

            I built twice. It failed the first time because i forgot to ommit the webkit, pfff.

            The second time it build perfectly with the above configuration. Thanks SGaist.

            So i quickly built a simple gui app and copied it in the target system and voila a window appeared :) .

            But, still a but, i don't have a mouse and keyboard. And the system is stuck at this point.

              Great !

              You can also move/remove the webkit folder if you want to avoid that.

              Are both detected on your target system ?

                My target system is just a console system. I guess at least the keyboard should be ok because i am able to launch it.

                How can i check if mouse is detected also?

                  Update:

                  AnalogClock example runs ok. I mean that the clock ticks.

                  I changed my app by placing a QLineEdit and i can see the cursor in the QLineEdit blinking but i can't type nor move the mouse.

                        Yes /dev/mouse2 .

                        There is also /dev/mouse1 but it appers that the correct one is /dev/mouse2

                          Then you might need to setup that information before starting your application but I don't know if Qt 5 has the same set of variables / command line options as Qt 4 for that, sorry.

                            Ok, thanks a lot. You've been very helpful.

                            I will start a new thread for this problem.
