Re: gtk and linux
Hello Craig, It seems that an average user has to be able to install linux and then configure it (if possible). That is why I cannot give you an skill level... maybe 7, or 7.35-7.63 :) Is there a list of linux flavors like Ubuntu, KDE, Red Hat... that include or don't include gtk Even if your disto does not have GTK packages, you can build them from sources or try to search for some ports. This task probably can be performed by 8 or 9 skilled average user.

And, let's say that a type of linux I think all will include gtk, either as part of the standard install or available via the package manager. To install from the package manager you just need to type gtk and click the install button (details vary a bit). Even this step is usually done for you: if you install a program which needs gtk, gtk will be automatically installed for you. doesn't include gtk, how difficult is it for an average computer user to install gtk (on a scale of 1 to 10)? Building and installing the whole of gtk from source requires a lot of skill and work, but I think no regular user would ever need to do this.

It lists the packaged version of Gtk+ for every version of the distribtion. E.g. for Fedora: http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=fedora and see the row labelled gtk+. Distros that do not package Gtk+ at all are very rare (mosty those not including any GUI whatsoever).

GTK on linux framebuffer - disabling the mouse
Hello list, I tried to find a hint of disabling the mouse (cursor handlers) in the gdk gtk reference without luck. Is there a possibility to disable the mouse handling completely? I try to write an application for the framebuffer, where the mouse is not needed and will only be a gap.

cross-compiling a GTK app, linux - darwin
Does anyone have expertise/recommendations to share, on the subject of compiling a GTK app on x86 Linux for the powerpc-apple-darwin target? I'm familiar with the linux - win32 cross. This is relatively easy since mingw makes the win32 API available in a single package, and Tor Lillqvist makes available the GTK dev material for win32, plus various dependencies, also nicely packaged. I'm wondering if tarring up all the GTK+ stuff from a fink installation on OS X, and dumping it into a suitable directory on Linux, is going to get me anywhere (having built a suitable binutils and cross-gcc first, of course).

First, see http://ranger.befunk.com/fink/darwin-cross/ . To build useful exes, though, you have to populate the cross environment with headers, libraries, and frameworks from the real OS X box. It's a bit tedious but doable. Here are some tips: - Place any .framework folders in the lib folder of the cross environment. - symlink any Include directories inside the frameworks to the include folder, but without the .framwork extension. In otherwords, symlink $CROSSROOT/lib/fooBar.framework/Headers to $CROSSROOT/include/fooBar - You'll have to go through each dylib and use the otool and install_name_tool command to find and fixup the linker paths to match your cross environment's directory structure. For example, many dylibs want to link against /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib. You'll have to use install_name_tool to change that to /path/to/cross/lib/libSystem.B.dylib. This does not affect your exes at all, unless you bundled a library with the exe, but then you'll want to use install_name_tool anyway to adjust the paths to be relative to the app bundle itself. For more information on this in general, see the following information that applies to more than just Qt: http://doc.trolltech.com/4.2/deployment-mac.html Right now I only have my OS X 10.3 PPC cross environment populated. I use it to, ahem, build Qt apps (app bundles and all) for OS X 10.3 or later from my Linux box. I have some scripts I used to do the fixups, which I may be able to e-mail to you. I cannot offer the cross environment for download anywhere because it contains actual apple libraries (the OS X runtime libraries and frameworks) that cannot be distributed. They'd have to come from your own licensed copy of OS X. I don't think it's currently possible to cross-compile GTK itself for Quartz (you can for X11, though), but once GTK is built, it's just a matter of transferring the headers, libraries, and frameworks to the linux environment.
