Re: [ANNOUNCE] Columbus Navigation Toolkit

Thank you :) All your appreciation makes this itch worth the scratch :)

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Columbus Navigation Toolkit

I was planning on releasing 0.9.4 at the end of last week, but I've been working on quite a lot of new bits and also some priliminary MeeGo UX support which I hope to finish for the first Cambridge MeeGo Network meeting this week. So expect the new version by the end of this week. :)

If there is anything you feel you want in this "small" point release then please let me know.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Columbus Navigation Toolkit

@tswindell - I for one hope this past week's ructions have not killed your enthusiasm for Columbus?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Columbus Navigation Toolkit

This program is great! It seems to be alot like the old GPS Data program on my N82, but with many more features! Like feeding the gps data to another device via bluetooth! Since there's not going to be an N900 version of RaceChrono, i can use my N900 as a bt gps, while running racechrono on my n82! win!

It's a bit buggy, though. It seems to randomly crash to desktop without warning. But that may be my phone, so i'm not sure.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Columbus Navigation Toolkit

Hi,

Great app. I am using columbus for using my n900 as a gps device for various navigation applications on Ubuntu. Using it over ip tcp works fine. Though I would really like to use it over usb.

I have tried to stream to port /dev/ttyGS2 but are usually not receiving data on my netbook at /dev/ttyACM0. Sometimes when I unplug the usb cable I receive GPS messages on my netbook, usually about 8 lines of data. I have noticed that this is most probably a usb serial problem since echoing on /dev/ttyGS2 results in the same behaviour.

Does anyone have the same problem, or does anyone know how to test where the problem lies? Is the data actually send by the n900 or do I have a problem on my netbook?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Columbus Navigation Toolkit

Strangely, Columbus has stopped working for me. It won't even start.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled it again with no luck.

Can anybody tell me if there is any config file that I should remove or how can I make a more efficient test?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Columbus Navigation Toolkit

If you open an x-terminal and type

Code:

/opt/usr/bin/columbus

you will get output that may help decipher what's gone missing.

So it's a missing dependency. Do you know where that symbol is located?

That symbol is defined in librxsupport

OK, the problem is that I have installed 0.1.0-4 while Columbus should depend on a newer version to force the upgrade of the library.

I have upgraded it manually and now it works.

Thank you.
