We tried GTK+ on a EP9302 board we developed by our own (32MB SDRAM,
16 MB NOR Flash) and not on the TS7300 a year ago. Compiling an
application was not easy, because some packages needed by GTK have
some problems with cross compiling. So there is some work to get it
compiled. Once we got an executable (the hello world application). The
size of the application was about 15 MB just for hello world. And it
was very very slow. We compiled another GTK sample application and got
the same results.
So at least we decided to throw the whole GTK+ packages away and build
our own windowing system based directly on DirectFB. A Hello World
application is now less than 2 MB and very fast.

If you still want to try GTK+ you can contact me. I think that I have
still somewhere a shell script which builds the whole GTK packages
(gettext, freetext, pango, gtk, etc.) for the EP9302 processor.
