[QtMoko] Error compiling on wheezy

[Giacomo 'giotti' Mariani]

Hi all.

Updates:
 * I had to install libasound2 libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0
libts-0.0-0 in order to solve library dependencies.
 * I had no mouse in console, so I had to install gpm.

Now I'm able to run qpe, but:
 * the mouse is quite unresponsive.
 * the QtMoko calibration window appears,  but I'm not able to click and
calibrate it... :
Cannot open input device '/dev/tty0': Permission denied
readFile failed /sys/bus/platform/devices/twl4030_usb/vbus : "No such
file or directory"
readFile failed /sys/class/power_supply/bq27000-battery/status : "No
such file or directory"
readFile failed /sys/class/power_supply/bq27000-battery/capacity : "No
such file or directory"
readFile failed /sys/class/power_supply/bq27000-battery/current_now :
"No such file or directory"

Any further suggestion?

Thanks a lot,
  Giacomo
