Here is a quick rundown for getting OpenWRT-Zipit cross compiled on a 64 bit Intel i7 machine with Ubuntu Server 12.10.

Steps:

• sudo apt-get update
• sudo apt-get build-essential git-core gawk pngcrush libpng-dev flex
• sudo adduser openwrt
• su openwrt
• cd ~
• git clone git@github.com:openwrt-zipit/openwrt-zipit.git
• git clone git@github.com:openwrt-zipit/openwrt-zipit-packages.git
• git clone git@github.com:openwrt-zipit/openwrt-packages.git
• cd openwrt-zipit
• echo “src-link zipitpackages $HOME/openwrt-zipit-packages” > feeds.conf
• echo “src-link packages $HOME/openwrt-packages” > feeds.conf
• wget https://github.com/downloads/anarsoul/openwrt-zipit/.config
• make package/symlinks

After this you can run:

• make menuconfig
• make 

And everything should compile. If it doesn’t it’s probably a package fault which should be fixed.

Fix;

• ln -s `pwd`/staging_dir/target-arm_v5te_uClibc-0.9.33.2_eabi/usr/include/videodev.h `pwd`/staging_dir/target-arm_v5te_uClibc-0.9.33.2_eabi/usr/include/linux/
• Open openwrt-zipit-packages/pygame/Makefile and change the DEPENDS to :  DEPENDS:=+python-mini +libsdl +libpng +libjpeg +libsdl-image +libsdl-mixer +libsdl-ttf +libv4l
