Anyhow, I'm willing to be a guinea pig if it helps the community. Let me know if you have any additional suggestions.
I'm going to take you up on that offer. When you enable the internal GPS receiver (via the command line or the built-in wayfinder application), please open an xterm and run the following command:
Code:
ps | grep gpsd
Let me know what the output is. That will help me work a solution for the N810's internal GPS receiver.

Fixed the .install files for flite/proj on OS2008
 
I fixed the .install files (in the original post) for flite and proj on OS2008. They should now install onto OS2008 without issue.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

I recall some first start routines, and I actually read the quick start... or scanned it at least. I guess it is possible there was a prompt to pick the location... I don't recall it but I may have been more interested in just getting started and going with the defaults. If so, my bad. Maybe someone else could confirm.

one thing though, is it just my eyes or do the maps look slightly more pixelated than the previous versions ?
Cheers

My bad, I left double pixels turned on, my personal preference is standard sized :)

Thanks heaps for the update for OS2008.

Of course, I'm sure most people just breeze right through that dialog. They probably also press "Cancel" when Maemo Mapper suggests that you read the "Quick Start" help document....
...and that's a shame, too, because MMapper is one of the very few free, third-party apps for the ITs to come with a genuine help file, and on top of that it's a really extensive and well-written one !

gnuite: Finally got round to installing and using it. GPS fixed acquired a bit faster than usual, which I know is probably not due to MM in any part, but I just wanted to make this clear. The only "bug" I found was that sometimes the hourglass didn't show up, and sometimes I ended up with two hourglasses (I think this happened only with the Google Street maps).
Keep up the good work.

I've just tried the new version on my N810 and it can't find the internal GPS when I choose /dev/pgps

I'll be happy to test anything to get it working if you like.

will check when its daylight and weather is better as its dark, cloudy & raining at the moment :confused: as it could just be me, user error :o
OK, so when I tested it this morning during drive to work, it worked flawlessly, my sincerest apologies gnuite for jumping to conclusions. :o :o

I quite like the idea to make the selection of where the maps are stored (Internal/External memory) a clearer obligatory prompt on completion of install, as this will ensure users change path at first install of MM on their devices.

I got it to run on the N810 by using running Wayfinder first and using the gpsd server option.

Without wayfinder running the apps running after the grep are

/usr/sbin/gpsdriver

and with Wayfinder running

/usr/sbin/gpsdriver
/usr/libexec/navicore-gpsd-helper
/usr/sbin/gpsd -n -N -F /tmp/.gpsd_ctrl_sock /dev/pgp

I have waited for this for months now, ever since you first mentioned it was coming. So a big thank you from me too.

I installed it last night, it crashes easily but, since no one else has mentioned it, probably due to my N800/2008OS -18 setup.

16gb sd cards are now very affordable and just in time for all those lovely maps.
