I wonder how well standard Qt apps do, in particular running the QtWebKit demo browser. Good enough to take the time to make a 10 foot browser UI?

- nl 15y agoI don't see why not. Firefox runs ok at the moment (with no optimization) and there is at least one Googler working on getting Chrome working.
- icefox 15y agoI assume you mean "I don't see why it wont run well". For what it is worth if Qt is showing up on the screen there is a an extremely good chance you can already run Arora or the demo browser (and if Qt is compiled the demo browser binary probably exists already), no porting needed. This is the point of Qt. Given that Qt apps should just work, the real question is how good is the hardware? Is the memory too little? Is the cpu to slow? etc
- nl 15y agoYes, I understand your question. My response was supposed to indicate that the Qt browsers probably will run ok, given that there is sufficient CPU power to run Firefox.
