Hi

With current UbuntuSDK, cross compiling qmake projects doesn't work. It
might in the future.
It was discussed on this mailing list and should be somewhere on the site.
There is a tutorial on Ubuntu on how to cross compile in the SDK:
http://developer.ubuntu.com/apps/sdk/tutorials/building-cross-architecture-click-applications/
For the emulator, replace armhf with i386.

If you have an emulator running, it should be listed in the device tab in
the SDK.
Then you can just press run button and it'll run on the emulator if the
cross compiling works.

If you need additional libs for your app, you need to install them in this
chroot and copy them in your package in the cmake project.
