Ok, as far as I understand it means nobody has successfully compiled Qt5 + webkit + xcb + mesa yet. Perhaps, people use only the framebuffer with buildroot. > But if you want this to happen, you should either: 1) Do it yourself. > 2) Wait for someone else to do it, but then you can't expect any > particular deadline or guarantees.

Unfortunately we have a dead-line for our project and my knowledge is too small to do it myself. I'm going for the third option, but with another company :-) > BTW, what is your hardware platform?

Thomas We're using a Freescale iMX6 MARS board, with the modular X.org server. As drivers, I selected: xf86-input-evdev xf86-input-keyboard xf86-input-mouse xf86-input-tslib xf86-video-fbdev because I don't know which other video driver I should select for my platform...
