Hey Darren - so I was able to run the Qt clock demo on top of the mir snap. Here's a quick list of what I did, so maybe we can figure out a possible difference in what you and I both attempted.
The image... for the Ubuntu Core image I followed the instructions at https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/snappy/start/ under the heading "Getting started with an x86 device". iiuc, you actually created an image from the ubuntu-device-flash tool ? this might be one difference. Mir snap... i installed the mir snap from the store, snappy install mir.mvp-demo which auto launched mir server just fine. It was built a few months ago using the exact same instructions in the post you were trying to follow. Qt clock snap... I actually scp'd an old Qt snap i had lying around, again, it had been built using the exact same instructions in the post. $ scp *.snap ubu...@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:/home/ubuntu $ sudo snappy install --allow-unauthenticated qtdec*.snap $ export LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 $ sudo qtdeclarative5-examples-amd64.clocks Note, don't forget to set the LC_ALL, that'll result in an error. br,kg On Mon, Oct 12, 2015 at 12:01 PM, Darren Landoll <darren.land...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Mon, Oct 12, 2015 at 12:25 PM, Kevin Gunn <kevin.g...@canonical.com> > wrote: > >> Hey Darren - give me a chance to replicate what you're doing so i can >> compare results. >> One question, were you able to run the gui example per the original >> instructions in a vm ?? >> >> br,kg >> > > I briefly tried setting up and running it within a VM (on my Ubuntu 12.04 > machine), but was having trouble getting the Mir server to even run on the > VM.
