Okay so OT. let me add that there is a big list of stuff that can be built with the 2006q3 TC on the buildroot thread. that will prevent you asking "Can I build X? with the native TC?"

If it is on that list then Yes you can, just have a look at the instructions or if they are too scary maybe ask for a version that can be run to be posted.

next all the things that can be currently built using the 2006q3 TC are being *slowly* build-tested against each of the http://sourcery.mentor.com/public/gn...linux-gnueabi/ Toolchains in reverse order. I.E. From "Will build with 2011.09" -say- back to "Compiles okay with 2008q3"

This is a highly thankless task further complicated by actual issues surrounding each dependant app. Sufficed to say it is rumbling on.
(arm 2009q1 QT build rumbles by as I type)

Knc has put together an excellent selection of GETTING STARTED guides that really are very important, illuminating and honestly *required* reading.

The simple implementation of using the shortnamed CS TC's alone is worth it's weight in gold and I use it everyday. Give the Kek a solid cruise and thank your lucky stars you are at least programming for a known set of hardware, however badly supported. Life could be worse. And good luck!

Don't be afraid to ask stupid questions after you've checked on the wiki, the threads and google. I've asked an awful lot of stupid questions now just so the answers will be here when you search for them (also the answers were pretty handy too now I think about it )

Please share what you did when you do something cool. I will be the first to give it a "Swoot!" and mangle it in to my registers.

The kindle is a SERIOUSLY underdeveloped platform, no really, we need developers. Insert picture of uncle Sam pointing finger here.

Thanks for being involved.
