I've just seen this fortuitously:

1. Qt Extended (discontinued by Qt/Nokia) has a unofficial continuation in "Qt Extended Improved", based on Qt Extended 4.4.3:
http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Qt_Extended_Improved

2. QtMoko (a distribution for the OpenMoko Neo FreeRunner based on Debian and Qt Extended) manages to support both QtE apps and X apps.

I've read two versions: that "QtMoko x4" simply starts both X server and QTE:
http://lists.openmoko.org/pipermail/...ly/050679.html

the other version is that when in QTE , if you launch an X app using QX (a helper program), it launchs a X server for the program:
http://github.com/radekp/qtmoko/blob...ions/qx/qx.cpp

3. The touchscreen problem may be because the env variable TSLIB_TSDEVICE is not correctly adjusted before launching QTE, as in

Code:

export TSLIB_TSDEVICE=/dev/ttyS0
export TSLIB_CONFFILE=/etc/ts.conf
export TSLIB_PLUGINDIR=/usr/lib/ts

See this thread http://forum.irexnet.com/viewtopic.p...7e9654e0b785d5

Also, see "Get touchscreen working" (it's for X, but should also be relevant for QTE) in http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Manual_Debian

Hope this helps
