Busybox is considered as the Swiss Army's Knife for embedded Linux: this package offers in a very compact footprint most of all the Linux command-line utilities.

A very common need during an embedded projet development is to have the set of tools required to compile program for a platform different from the one used for the development itself.
This tool set is known as a cross development toolchain.
Of course, you can use both the available commercial/free pre-compiled toolchains, but you may choose to roll your own...

Qt C++ GUI programming
Par Mikeul, Sunday 5 June 2005 à 10:55 :: Linux
Qt is a robust, multi-patform (Linux, Windows, Mac) framework that enables rapid developments in C++ using the most advanced features available (multi-threading, async I/O, ...).
One very good book on the subject is "C++ GUI Programming with Qt 3", by Jasmin Blanchette and Mark Summerfield (ISBN 0-13-124072-2).
A PDF version of this book is available here.
