Libgarmin hasn't had a commit in a while. I don't think it's very complete and not getting any closer. According to this, navigation is not supported in garmin maps. I don't know if that's still true or not.

I'm currently using the internal GUI and the qpainter renderer, forceing install because it was built for Qt4.7. This is so people can use it without installing the experimental Qt4.7 libraries, and because the devs told me that, at present, the internal GUI is the best option. The QML one will eventually replace it for Maemo users. (So to answer the question, you don't need the Qt libraries.)

Hmm, now I have to get rid of them then...

But about the routing issue with garmin maps, that's sad, really.

Flandry worked!

Where is that thanks button...
Seriously thank you, I was already using sygic, mappero and ovi. Wanted to give a try to navit but never had a time to actually sit and dig in cli. With your script is painless and works flawlessly. If only we had more people like you on this forum....

Cheers!

Thanks, Flandry, your script works for me too.
I have a suggestion, you can change the line in maps.xml to:
<map type="binfile" enabled="yes" data="/home/user/MyDocs/navit_maps/*.bin"/>

This way, you don't have to rename the .bin file, Navit will use all maps that you have in that folder.

Installed using Flandry's script provided here: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=383

Navit won't start at all. I didn't have any earlier versions installed before. When launching the navit from terminal I get this:
Code:

Nokia-N900:/home/user# navit
navit:bookmarks_get_user_data_directory:creating dir /root/.navit
map_rect_new_textfile unable to open textfile /root/.navit/bookmark.txt
navit:plugin_load:can't load '/opt/navit/lib/navit/osd/libosd_core.so', already loaded

And nothing happens after that, excep I see process "navit" taking CPU 90-99%. Any ideas?

I'm glad to hear this is working out for people. :)

Kovach: Thanks, had realized that after the last update and will be including that line and a similar one for garmin maps next time i update the XML. I've also been playing with the OSD layout because the present one takes a lot of precious vertical space.

The clue is the "#" and the /root/.navit. Yes, kids, this process died of root disease...

Hey Flandry.

Thanks a bunch for your help!

Your new script fixed it.

Thanks.

Forgot to say that same happens if I run it as regular user. I just ran it root via putty so I could copy&paste the output here easily.

Well rats then. I thought it was simply a matter of having the wrong config file in use.

Remove the configuration
rm -r .navit

and uninstall using the remove script and then see if the newest install script works. I haven't any other ideas at the moment on what could be wrong, sorry.

Will do that and report back :) Thanks for the effort!

Edit: that did the trick, works now :)
