More news.

I've finished compiling the gcc 3.4 and libc 2.3.3 and setup a new target in scratchbox using that new toolchain. Then, copied the contents of the iliad (yay, now I've mine :-b) to that new scrtachbox user.

I've noticed two things:

1. The libc of the iliad is a 2.3.4, although it's name is 2.3.3 (but hope that the binaries I compile using this new toolchain work)

2. Some of the programs in the iliad use BOTH the X server and the framebuffer directly (that is, /dev/fb0). An example of this is the xebreader and scribble.

Attached is a screenshot using pageBar and xpdf executed in the scratchbox with the DISPLAY exported to a Xnest in my desktop :-). And it works (clicking in the pagebar you go to other pages), ect.
