Koen,
can you try the recipe sent by Gary? Chromium compiles and the browser
can be launched, but then multiple problems arise (freeze on connection,
new tab freeze). Gary is experiencing the same kind of problems with OE
while he reports something working on Poky. I have tried on a clean
Beagleboard/Angstrom setup and I'm getting those same errors. Due to the
strangeness of the problems (library loading error though the library is
loaded, pipe error), I start to believe that the problem lies somewhere
else.
Can you please tell if it works for you?
