- open xterm (press ctrl+shift+x) - type python2.5 /opt/advancedcaching/core.py --hildon > debug.log 2>&1 Then use AGTL a few minutes. This will produce a file called debug.log, which you can post here. You can also try and see if the problem is not related to the GPS, but to the display. For this purpose, a GPS simulation is built in. To run it, type python2.5 /opt/advancedcaching/core.py --hildon --sim and check if you get a GPS fix (at least most of the time). |

Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
I might have missed this, but I noticed not all waypoint info is always extracted from a description. It would be nice if we could cut/ waypoint info from the description and paste it is the notes 'add waypoint'

With simulation, everything worked perfect. Edit: Oh, and would this thread be the right place to post feature requests? For the maps configuration, it would be nice if "box" maps in addition to "centerpoint" maps could be also configured. With centerpoint maps I mean maps that use %(x), %(y) as centerpoint, but in Finland we have a map service that serves the map tiles based on topleft-bottomright coordinates. Example URL: http://kansalaisen.karttapaikka.fi/i...600&height=600 Unfortunately it does not serve map data outside Finland, so I understand that this particular service might be of no interest to you, but who knows, there may be similar services in other countries too? |

Hi, I love this app and I have found several caches with it but now I have same problem than AkiL, GPS view is not working at all. In version 0.6.1.1 everything worked well but after this latest release problem appears. When I type "python2.5 /opt/advancedcaching/core.py --hildon --sim" I get GPX fix ok. I hope that bug will be founded and I can continue to use this great app . --rmn |
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Hey
I'm trying to use Advanced Geocaching tool for Linux. I createt an account at geocaching.com put in the user details, but I still cant use the search. I updatet to the most recent version: (0.6.1.3-1). What am I doing wrong? I dont need gps to get search results right? I want to look for some caches while I'm at the home WiFi and then go and search for the cache offline. |

I have the same problem as AkiL. Have to zoom in/out map screen to get the current location to move as I move. And there is no arrow or distances to selected geocache on the GPS screen. Haven't tried simulation mode. I got the N900 just after the 1.2 update was released so the first I did was to update. I have tried deleting the .agtl directory and reinstalling the application. Once it did draw a red cross where the green arrow should be. The application had the been in the background while I did some other stuff for some time. -Tommy |

Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
SUGGESTION TO DEVELOPER
great little app. used it to find my first cache. one suggestion tho, the compas simulation can be too spuratic, found my self joggin in random directions to get sense out of it as it obviously estimates the orientation of the n900 from ur GPS track. what i think would be more useful is the ability to lock the compass, or manually rotate it and line up the sun? or use in conjunction with a real compass. as it is when you stop movin it jumps all over the place and makes gettin a bearin difficult. its useful while in motion tho. thanks! |

Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Please try the following if you can't get a fix:
Edit the file /opt/advancedcaching/simplegui.py (for example on the device using vi and root). Change the line 513 from: sun_angle = astral.get_sun_azimuth_from_fix(self.gps_data) to sun_angle = None (please double check that the number of spaces in front of the text doesn't change) The sun indicator should now be missing, but the rest should work. If not, please report any further problems as described above. If the application doesn't start, there went something wrong while changing the file. |
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Hi webhamster. Thanks for your continuing support for AGTL - It is great.
I just took the latest version (0.6.1.4-4) out for a spin in my local area, introducing my mum to the world of Geocaching. We struggled a bit as it seems that there's a problem with setting the target GPS co-ordinates now. Neither 'set as target' or 'set as main coordinate' seem to do anything. Clicking on the targets from within the 'charge target' GPS dialog also fails, though typing them in manually is still OK (so we managed to find the caches we were looking for) :) |
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
This sounds like a great program, I wish there was a Diablo / n810 build of it.

So please send it to me, either by posting it here or via e-mail. Thanks! |
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Hi Webhamster... Debug log as requested. I started the app, selected a cache, then tried to set the target a few times in a few different ways, and then quit.
Code:
~ $ cat MyDocs/debug.log |
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Hi,
Just to say: I have the same problem as Fecn and others. It's not possible anymore to select a target. I just downloaded a development snapshot from Github to have a short look at the next version and I have to say it looks very interesting. It's under heavy development as I can see. So many things do not work at this time (f.e. no caches are shown on the map). I'm looking forward for this new release, I hope it's ready soon =) Thanks a lot for your development, it makes Geocaching much easier with such a great tool! Regards, Tobias |
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Version 0.6.1.5 is in extras-devel, ready for you to check it out!
Fixing: - fieldnotes uploading - sun indicator/no fix problem - coordinate selection problem. |
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Works for me! Thanks a lot for this fix...

Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Sorry for the delay... back from my holiday now and I too can confirm that the fix works. Thanks webhamster.

Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Hi webhamster,
the sun compass is great idea from you :) .. I wondering if it is possible to make this feature as a standalone app. I think it will rock... :D :D Thanks for your great app. ;) |
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Hey
How do I get my present position fixed when i start AGTL? Is there a option to push like the red dot in maps? Everytime when I open it now I end up at the last location I visited. Thanks |

Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Webhamster, thanks for all of your work on this app. It's one of my favorites for the N900, and it sounds like you just made it even better. I'm updating now, and looking forward to checking out the new features.
