William, thanks for taking the time to answer. I'm using TightVNC to remote
to the BBB, so native development is a go.
How would flash get ruined? So do you mean having a secondary rootfs? Is it
possible to have the rootfs on an sd card and everything else running from
eemc as-is?
So back to
I think William is right about developing natively on the beaglebone. The
GUI design could be done from other desktop and copied to BBB, or done
natively. So are the cpp files (if you are using C++, I don't know how to
do other languages like Python or bonescript). But all the program files

Henry, many thanks for the info and congrats on the new addition to the
family!
Some of the pages of the book are available online and the example section
at the end is exactly the example I was looking for. I went ahead and
ordered it off Amazon Prime.
Looks like installing QT4 and QT
Frank, thanks. The 'good sleep' really sounds ancient to me. But I love my
wife and daughter, so everything that is in trade is worthy.
Anyway, I'm glad that you feel more on track now. Let me know if you have
any further questions (especially questions in detail) so that we can
discuss and grow

Hi Henry,
Did you ever get something going?
I just received my BBB with Debian and 4D Systems 7 LCD cape.
All I want my app to do is display a few soft buttons that control some
gpios. I also want the BBB to boot into my app automatically at startup.
I just downloaded QT Creator on my Win7
*I just downloaded QT Creator on my Win7 PC, and was hoping there's an
example program that I can cross compile for the BBB and be off and running
within a few hours. Does not seem like the case. Is cross compilation even
possible from Win7 PC for BBB target?*
Cross compiling QT can, and
Dear Will,
Thanks for the suggestion. Now I know how to flash the image to the µSD
card. It's just I don't know what to do with Debian. Do I need to install
any package to let Debian to support Qt? Thanks.

Dear Eric,
It turned out that If I restart the BBB, the DHCP will work normally. Don't
know the reason, but at least I know how to solve this problem. Now I can
SSH to the BBB as root from terminal.
What you described is exactly what I expected: whenever I turn on the BBB,
after the system
Dear Eric,
Thanks for all the information! I will read all the articles and videos.
Now I have a small problem. I followed the video to map an image of
Angstrom on my SD card, and boot the BBB with this system. However, when I
try to connect the BBB to my mac through USB, the ip of the BBB
If you Google “Beaglebone latest images” you will see that the OS of choice
(and best supported) is Debian.
I suggest that you flash that image to your uSD card.

Dear all,
I'm a complete newbie in this community. As a postdoc, I'm responsible of
building a off-computer control system. I decided to use BeagleBone as the
central controller. But since I have other academic jobs, I wish I could
finish the project quick and dirty. So maybe I need some
did you want to use soft buttons (buttons generated on the touchscreen as
needed in software) or hard buttons (buttons on the display that consist of
an actual hardware switch that causes a detectable contact closure) for
this? For the soft buttons I'd look at Qt. For the hard buttons, look at
Dear Eric, thanks for the reply! I’m planning to use soft button, not the
hard button. Because in the end, I will end up adding many soft buttons
with different names that can send different strings to the next device
through serial port.
Now I have very rookie questions:
1) I have connect
As a quick hack, the hard button(s) may be easier with less code, but you
are right, using the soft button approach with software based menus is much
more flexible. With the touchscreen attached, the beagle starts running
it's display on the touchscreen and enables the touch interface as if it
