Re: [crux-arm] Compiling web browser on RPI2

Hey Guido, to build firefox (I haven't tested midori but if it needs qt you'll hit the same problem while building that beast) you need a big amount of swap. I've built firefox and chromium on the cubieboard2 without problems but I'm using 14GB of swap file. Probably only ~8-9GB are needed. If you can give a try and report it'd be great.

Compiling web browser on RPI2

Hi all, I'm trying to compile a web browser on my RPI2 on crux-arm 3.2, but every time I try (Firefox or Midori), the build fails killing cc1plus because of a low memory issue. I freed the GPU ram to leave all available memory to the build process, but I had same result. I also tried to cross compile them using pkgutils-cross and toolchain but no success I'm considering qemu and a virtual system... what do you think about that? Is there any guide to this kind of processes? Thank you for your help Best regards Guido
