When i click from the tablet, im taken to a text only page with what looks like an install command. Any help?

**Edit** I got it working. I just had to edit the repository settings.
That was a problem with my web server, and it has since been fixed. Clicking on that link should cause your Nokia device to install Maemo Mapper automatically. My apologies for the inconvenience.

I appoligize now. I am the biggest noob with my 770. I have a nokia ld-1w that should work with this program so that should be good. I downloaded mapper from the repositories but its only version 1.3.5. Where the heck to I get the latest version 1.4?? I'm so flippin confused. Any help would be appreciated and please make the directions fool proof if you can.

This 770 makes me feel like a 4 yearold trying to learn linux...

Thx.

Paint

Please upgrade your firmware to the latest version (if you haven't already). Once you have done that, you can start using the "most recent" repository, called "gregale". A shortcut for doing this would be to click on the link for Maemo Mapper, on the first post of this thread. That link will automatically set up the new gregale repository and install the latest version of Maemo Mapper from that repository.

Good idea. So, any of the Go features (including "Go to GPS location", whether its directly or via the Auto-Center function) will be "Go-Back"-able. I'll make it stackable, so you can go back multiple times. What about a "Go Forward" button? The Go stack won't persist between restarts, though.

Will do, although one of the "Show XXX" actions might hold you over until then, since all they do is pop up something for a few seconds.

Thanks for the suggestions.
that sounds great! thanks for listening.

1 more thing...

In the Download maps By Area tab. Would it be possible to select maps in a 5 mile radius of current location or current map. Then I could cache a bunch of maps for offline use. (a selectable range would be nice. or another way rather than using long and lat)

Kempja,

I would like to know more about those accurate ways to re-project data. The WMS-server I used for testing is under construction and not public currently. It's running on MapServer and uses gdal, proj, postgis etc...

And sorry for late reply.

Thanks, I got things going. I'm able to connect to my NOkia LD-1W and track movement just fine. However, I'm paired with my N73, which in the US only gets an EDGE connection, and that's hardly quick enough for map downloads on-the-go.

Is there a way to download a specific region maps to my memory card, and just use that? I have TomTom on my N73 and that's how it works, I have the US South Central maps (~300mb) on my 2GB memory card, so when driving I don't need a data connection.

If this is already implemented, kindly tell me how to do it and then smack me upside the head. :)

Use the "Manage Maps..." button in the "Maps" menu.

*smack* :)

Ah, thanks. Although, I'm still confused as to how to tell it where to download. As far as I can tell, the best way to do it would be to have the GPS connected (to get the coordinates). I'll give it a go at lunch maybe.

You can download maps (at different zoom levels) along a route. This is OK if you want all the maps at a few zoom levels along the whole route.

What I would like is to download a bunch of maps around the current map using selected zoom levels. then I could cache some maps at one location for offline use.

When on a route I don't need all the zoom levels for the whole route. Just around the endpoint or a few at waypoints.

I guess maybe I'm looking for something different. I want to be able to download ALL zoom levels (or maybe just the closest half) for a specific geographic area, for offline use, similar to TomTom on my N73, I have a region map downloaded and I can do full routes and everything without connecting to the internet, within the defined area.
