Re: Navit on N900
 
For the issue of car-dark layout chosen at startup, the navit wiki says, that the sequence of the profiles defined in navit.xml is responsible for the activated option at startup.

Strange is that I experienced also the car-dark layout, but not on every startupt of the program. I will see if I can get a reproducable behaviour and the check the order of the car profiles in navit.xml.

I tested the actual version maggelan94 did the nice tutorial for. For me it works very well, did a few drives around my town. At the moment it seems to run only if started from xterm, if I start from menu it crashes after a few minutes (as reported even with past versions)

When I have my car mount, I will do more tests.At the moment it seems to be a good choice when you need turn-by-turn navigation.

One thing I miss at the moment is the missing possibility to choose house numbers. Anyone knows if this is a map issue?

I use a european OSM map

It's a map issue, for many cities you have many streets with house maps in OSM already. For many no house numbers.

Go ahead and contribute to OSM, get OSM2Go on the N900, or edit on the PC, and input house numbers for streets you know, so we all make it better.

Re: Navit on N900
 
hey when you say

dpkg -i /home/user/MyDocs/navit_maps/navit*.deb

where that navit*.deb come from coz all we had was those five files. I get the error file not found.

Also when I changed the name of one of the file to navit*.deb and then tried to run, i still got the same error. Any help please. Thanks

9) Install the program
Open a Xterminal, then tape these lines
Code:
sudo gainroot
dpkg -i /path/to/navit*.deb
In my example, i've putted the files into the "navit_maps" folder, (by copying these files when my device was connected in mass storage mode)
So the shell has to be like this:
Code:
sudo gainroot
dpkg -i /home/user/MyDocs/navit_maps/navit*.deb
Then wait... a litte bit. If the soft ask something, let all by default and answer like the default value shown.

Hi,

with the "*" in the command it's used as a wildcard. Means if you have the five files from the zip as shown below, the wildcard installs all *.deb-files. Otherwise you have to fire up five commands instead of one.

Code:
navit-data_0.2.0~svn3048maemo_all.deb
navit-graphics-gtk-drawing-area_0.2.0~svn3048maemo_armel.deb
navit-gui-gtk_0.2.0~svn3048maemo_armel.deb
navit-gui-internal_0.2.0~svn3048maemo_armel.deb
navit_0.2.0~svn3048maemo_armel.deb
For the 'file not found'-error I assume, that you did not copy the deb files to the location you used in the command.

Please take the files from the Navit-svn3048.zip and change your directory in commandline to this location.

You can do this with command "cd /home/user/locationtodebfiles".

Then use

Code:
dpkg -i navit*.deb
to install the five debs.

Hope this helps, commandline is always a bit tricky at the beginning *gg*

Regards debrez

[/CODE]
2) Create the folder under Xterminal
Open the Xterminal
And type:
Code:
cd /home/users/
mkdir .navit
should be cd /home/user/

Re: Navit on N900
 
Yes, installation of the update works fine. Thanks.

The map loads good.

However, if I choose a destination, and ask to calculate the route, the program ends suddenly.

Is it possible to make a similar tutorial to install the garmin-driver ?

garmin driver is inbuilt. you need to enable it in maps.xml

Re: Navit on N900
 
Ok. I have enabled garmin maps in maps.xml; OSM maps are enabled as well. In navit - settings I can choose between the two maps. The path to the garmin map set is correct.
The map set consists of lots of small maps (*.img), a basemap.img, and a file product.tdb. The path is directed towards the basemap.img file.
(/home/user/navit_maps/basemap.img)

Osm maps are working perfectly.
In navit I disabled OSM maps, and enabled the garmin maps, but no map becomes visible.

I have tested the same mapset in QLandkarte GT, where it works perfectly.

What am I doing wrong ?
