When downloading files from a Trolltech server there will often be a file named md5sum.txt . The md5sum.txt file contains checksums for all the available files and it is strongly recommended that you download this file along with the others. When you have downloaded the required files, including md5sum.txt simply run:
md5sum -c md5sum.txt

Under a Unia/Linux system you can use the "file" command. This is handy when you are not sure what CPU architecture binary file suits, for example run:
file /opt/Qtopia/bin/qpe
Under a Unix/Linux system you can use the "ldd" command. This is handy when you need to check what shared libraries a binary uses, for example run:
ldd /opt/Qtopia/bin/qpe
