Qt Quick 3d with the SDK?

[kidproquo]

I am having a bit of trouble getting Qt3d to compile with the current SDK on Ubuntu 10.10.

I have downloaded the Qt3d preview that is mentioned in the "Labs blog post":http://labs.qt.nokia.com/2011/05/20/qt-quick-3d-downloads-available/ and tried to compile it in Qt Creator (2.2).

When I try to build it I get this as output:

Do I need to be recompiling the rest of Qt as well, or is there something I am missing.

That is the install step, isen't it?

You will need root permissions to write into /opt. Try "sudo make install".

You can install the SDK in your home folder to skip this kind of issues :)

Thanks Tobias. Running the build as root worked. I knew it would be a simple solution.

I think the confusion was from the instructions saying not to run make install as root if you're building Qt itself for Qt/3d. I must've been tired when I read them the first time.

The demos all look pretty good now I've got things running. I can't wait to get stuck in.
