Help to cross compile vlc to arm

Postby polarbear » 29 Jan 2008 13:38

Hi... I need to cross compile vlc 0.8.1 for an amr platform (an ipaq 5550 whit Familiar Linux distro).
I have found this howto http://wiki.videolan.org/ARM-XCompile but I have some problems.
I think this howto is incomplete... because when I have tried to cross compile vlc I have discovered that is necessary to cross compile before gtk+ (in the /ipkg/rules.h3600) that in turn need to cross compile before pango, atk... and other 15-20 packages.
To compile gtk+ then is necessary X11... and here are my problem. I have cross compiled libX11-1.0.3 but seem this is not enough because gtk+ configure don't find my X11 and give me the error:

Code: Select all

checking for XOpenDisplay in -lX11... no configure: error: *** libX11 not found
Here http://ipkgfind.handhelds.org/details.p ... l=&format= I have found a list of all packages needed to cross compile correctly (I hope)... but I don't be able to found sone of this packages (like libX11-6) that I tink are necessary.
Can someone help me to find this packages... or explain what's the correct way to cross compile vlc 0.8.1 for Familiar? :(
