OK thanks Tom I will try and read more on how to do that. Have not
done anything with qemu yet. But what I get now and correct if I am
wrong by OE vanilla you mean fresh directly off the dev branch no
other sub tree correct? then modify my .conf to to the settings you
listed above? If I am way off dont worry about taking the time to
explain in detail I will just read about it. I feel I have become an
annoyance on the boards from my lacking knowledge. Would showing the
recipe I build for my gumstix help? Its now building but not with
everything I want and some programs are broken, but its very close the
closest I have gotten so far. Any who thanks for replying and giving
me more info on how to help you guys help me. I do appreciate
everyones help and input a bunch.
