So please tell me if here is not the right place for this kind of questions. I'am trying to port a QT application to a new board using an AT91SAM9263 I use buildroot to generate toolchain (GCC 4.6.3 + uclibc) and rootfs I prefer generate AT91loader/U-BOOT/kernel directly in each git tree using the same compiler ! attach to this board there is 4.3 inch LCD I test frame buffer using QT framebuffer test application or fb-test-app (https://github.com/prpplague/fb-test-app) and it's work OK THe problem is whith my QT application the colors displayed are really bad ! and text 'contour' is really not clear like if another color was around text (sorry for my english here ;-) the only thing I've seen are warnings when compiling QT something like "invalid cast, use -Wcast-align " any advice is welcome ! herv?. -- View this message in context: http://buildroot-busybox.2317881.n4.nabble.com/QT-application-display-problem-tp33619.html Sent from the Buildroot (busybox) mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

You can check your framebuffer settings probably at the kernel boot command line, and you can check the QT color depth setting in the Location: ? -> Package Selection for the target ? -> Graphic libraries and applications (graphic/text) ? -> Qt (BR2_PACKAGE_QT [=y]) ? -> Gui Module (BR2_PACKAGE_QT_GUI_MODULE [=y]) ? -> Pixel depths in your Buildroot menuconfig. Otherwise it's strange it's good with the testapp. Did you compiled this framebuffer test app yourself? ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

The first solution is quicker ;) Otherwise if you check the examples/qws/framebuffer/main.c file in your Qt source tree, then you see, that this test app is checking the color depth of the framebuffer, and uses a color palette according to the framebuffer's set value. You might want to set up a similar mechanism in your code, if you want to use it in different environments. Good luck ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread
