Hi all,
Please excuse me I forgot to describe my results:
After moving my root partition from scard to an USB hdd, modifying /boot/cmdline.txt and /etc/fstab,  and adding 16GB of swap file on hdd, I successfully compiled Firefox, chromium and midori (the fastest browser in my system).
I had to install another font (I don't remember exactly which one... Dejavu?) to permit Firefox to run....

Thank you for your suggestions

Guido

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.

Regards,

Victor Martinez

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
