Thanks. I'm accustomed to building packages on my Linux desktop but I've somehow avoided cross-building until now. I even use a native toolchain on my ARM sheevaplug to keep it simple.

I was using crosstool-ng because of some comments in the forums, and the configuration niluje's published here. I like the kernel-style (menuconfig) interface. But if you think OE would be easier to get some of the libraries built, I'll give it a go. So they have their own repository of pacakges preconfigured for OE?
