You've grossly misinterpreted what Benson and I wrote, but the issue isn't important enough to spend more time explaining.

Where can you find those plugins?

Yup, its now working without redpill. Very Nice now that everything works.

Question: Can you change from openstreet to Google? Also, does it work offline (aka, where is the cache, and how big is it)

I have completely removed 0.6 and any previous traces of 0.7, and reinstalled. Carman cleanup was showing all packages as uninstalled.

Reinstalled, and everything installs cleanly, but I am getting a "no plugins" message. GPS, WLAN and ODB showing as connected. Does the same in simulator mode as well. Am I missing something really obvious?

Any Ideas? Thanks

Gaz

Yes, you can but you'll have to write the Google Maps plugin yourself ... It would be interesting that the people behind Carman state what they think about the Google Maps Plugin possibility ... And may be that they publish the OSM Plugin for example ...

It works offline and the tiles are stored on a repository specified by the plugin inside the Carman directory (for which you specify the place in Carman settings)

Same behavior here. In addition, Carman now connects to my Car-Pal ODB and immediately disconnects.

I have entered bug reports on these two issues.

You should try to run Carman in Xterm with those parameters :
carman-gtk --log-level=debug

That does not work for me at least. However with a little bit of lateral thinking an alternative is..

carmand vvvv

however it does not show any information regarding plugins unfortunately - all the messages I get at least are sucesses
