1-I have built Qt5.4.1 and Qt4.8.4 for an embedded device (based on armv5tejl) and all things work except GUI.



2-It seems that no frame buffer device exists:

3-from dmesg log:



Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 80x30
CLCD: PL110 CLCD hardware, HIE AT-T050QGH-02, VGA Landscape (supports 640x480 @ 24Mhz) display


4-Device itself has a SDK and display things using that SDK and libs in HTML format.



5-I have a restricted user on the device and I'm using my own BusyBox v1.20.0.



My Questions:



1-Is it possible for me to use device display via Qt without using provided SDK?



2-How could I access to the display device?



Any help would be appreciated.



Thank you very much
