[Interest] Error: Application cannot be started because it failed to load qt platform plugin “eglfs”

Hi Thiago,

Yes it seems like EGL and GLESv2 libraries are not Framebuffer based(like libEGL-fb.so and libGAL-fb.so etc )as seen in the below output:

linaro at linaro-ubuntu-desktop:~$ ls -l /usr/lib/libEGL* /usr/lib/libGLESv2* /usr/lib/libGAL*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     13 2012-12-14 08:40 /usr/lib/libEGL.so -> libEGL.so.0.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     13 2012-12-14 08:40 /usr/lib/libEGL.so.0 -> libEGL.so.0.0
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  59968 2012-12-14 08:40 /usr/lib/libEGL.so.0.0
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 703380 2012-12-14 08:40 /usr/lib/libGAL.so
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     18 2012-12-14 08:40 /usr/lib/libGLESv2.so -> libGLESv2.so.0.0.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     18 2012-12-14 08:40 /usr/lib/libGLESv2.so.0 -> libGLESv2.so.0.0.0
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 183384 2012-12-14 08:40 /usr/lib/libGLESv2.so.0.0.0

But am not sure if I need to try with qt-xcb as it gave same problem like in our gnome distribution the libraries for Xcb and the ones required by Qt5 do not match, since the ltib libraries are outdated.

Thanks and Regards,
Ramakanth

Right... I didn't think to look there. I only grepped for those functions in qtbase/src.

Anyway, the rest of the analysis is still valid. Please check the libraries.
