You should use arm-elf-gcc version 4.0.x

Where did you search? You can find gcc on its homepage. Most probably you'll need to build it yourself. To help with this there is a script in the tools/ directory called "rockboxdev.sh" which sets up the compiler environment for you. Also, there is a wiki page that describes how to setup your build environment.

Uhm could you link to that wiki becuase I cant find it (unless you are referrring to the cygwin page which I suppose is useless when you're on ubuntu as me...?)
EDIT: Nevermind, found it in another thread (http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=6306.0).

There is this wonderful section on the rockbox home page, called "documentation". There, under "For developers" (surprisingly), you can find a link called "First-time guide to Rockbox development". It's actually the first link in that section.

Have you looked at the navigation at the left side of this page? If you still don't find the wiki I can't really help you any further ...

[spite]Yeah, your mama....[/spite] :P
Anyway, I didn't figure that this was a 'developers' issue - for some reason I do not consider myself as such....
