Once you have the buildroot ready to go, then yes, you should be able to compile apps to run on the device. I grabbed the open source Doom and had quite the time trying to get it to compile, but once done, it created the application file. I could then launch that on the device either with SSH or creating an "app" for it and installing it with the LeapPad Manager.
I attached my LeapPad Doom files minus the doom.wad file. This has the SDL libraries the game needed to run correctly. It also only ran on the Ultra and not the LeapPad 2. I am not sure if I still have my buildroot setup since that was in a virtual machine I believe and quite a while ago.
Oh, very nice work!
You say that once I have Buildroot setup, I should be able to compile anything made with C(++) - yet when I run "gcc -v", it displays the version as 5.4.0, while I suspect it should be 4.9.3, as was built in Buildroot. Could it be that the TODO section might have to do with this?
Also, do you have any idea why DOOM won't run on the LeapPad 2? From what I've seen, it runs on both the LeapTV and the LeapPad Ultra, and the LeapPad 2 (as far as I know) has the same ARM chip as both of them.
Thanks for answering my questions, it really helps.
