we are in the process of installing pda[1] to an embedded device aka gumstix. the buildroot of the so called device has TCL but of course, no TK.
we were told to install TK manually but i has dependencies on X11 and is an embedded device that has no display to control and is intended to run fast and lightly.
has anyone go around something similar before? any advice on what route to take?
Hi,
You might also like to take a look at gp2xPd since it builds PDa without the gui libraries. There's a description of how I did that in the file src/gp2x.readme which is available in a patched version of PDa. So download PDa 0.6 from GÃŒenter's site, then apply the patch from here: http://mccormick.cx/projects/gp2xPd/files/gp2x-PDa.patch and then read the file src/gp2x.readme and have a look at the gp2x section in the makefiles. You should be able to use something very similar for gumstix.
So great that you are porting to gumstix - let us know how it runs.
Best,
Chris.
