        As long as you have the required xcb libraries / dev packages.
        See qtbase/src/plugins/platforms/xcb/README for the dependencies.

          What do you mean "qtbase/src/plugins/platforms/xcb/README" ?

            it's a file in the qt 5 source package.
            If you want to look at it online - https://qt.gitorious.org/qt/qtbase/blobs/master/src/plugins/platforms/xcb/README

            You can use either x11 or wayland as the windows system on linux, Qt 5 supports both.
            x11 on Qt5 needs some extra libraries compared to x11 on Qt4

                I don't think there's a difference - if your embedded linux distribution includes the required libraries then yes.
