[SailfishDevel] Question about connecting a Sailfish phone to Ubuntu Linux box

[Sahlan]

Hello,

I am pleased to report success in running a generated Sailfish app in 
the Qt Creator debugger.

As my phone was offering me a further update to 3.0.1.11, I decided to 
take advantage of that update. Of course, I then needed to download the 
3.0.1.11 SDK, and set up the kits for Qt Creator to use that SDK by 
default.

It seems my latest problems were due to my not understanding how the 
deployment should be specified. I changed this, under Project / Run 
Settings, from manual to automatically deploying as an rpm, and also on 
the same page ensured my Run configuration was set to be the device and 
not the emulator.

The first time I deployed and ran the debugger, it gave me a message, 
saying I needed to add a couple of lines to the .pro file to specify the 
installation path for the target. I did so, and then the debugger ran as 
far as the breakpoint I had set in main(). When I hit Continue, I saw 
the amusing "Hello Sailors" screen on my Jolla phone, so now it seems I 
am fully set up to build and debug apps.

Thanks for the advice given.  I did not need the make any changes 
regarding i.p. addresses, but if that had been the issue, your comments 
would have been extremely useful,

Regards,

Sahlan
