> I'm trying since days to write and develop programs on my host pc (Ubuntu 64bit) using qt-creator for my beaglebone and raspberry pi devices. I looked for 'qt-creator cross compile beagle, raspberry etc...' and it leads me to hundred of links and tutorial on how to compile qt-creator for my target plattform. But seriously, that not my idea. All what I want is to simply use my pc for developing my programs and lately deploy them to the remote device.

FWIW, you can use Qt Creator with Makefile-based projects, so you don't have to struggle if qmake stands in your way.
