thanks for the quick replies.
-funny screen refreshes are not acceptable for a sailing display
-i need medium fidelity quick refreshes like in XCsoar.
-I can connect input data to the serial port (this is easy)
-I don't "need" to compile busybox.
I was just trying to compile the kobolabs git distro because...... i don't know. i figured that was part of creating a build environment.

building XCsoar from source was amazingly straightforward after install armgcc cross compiler.

I know that there is lots of talk about debian releases and android etc
but
1) none of these work on my gloHD (i have tried many)
2)they all seem to be 3 or 4 years old.
