Re: Navit GPS (and libgarmin) for os2008
 

I cannibalised a car charger to provide power for my n810 wired to the bike's electrics. The screen stays on bright while charging.

That's a Maemo Mapper specific feature. Navit doesn't do that yet, but I think there's a patch floating around for it.

Well ... someone knows if Navit runs on Maemo 5?
I'm about buying this phone ...

Re: Navit GPS (and libgarmin) for os2008
 

Hey everyone, I have in troubles with Navit and Garmin maps. I installed Navit-svn-2976 from downloads.maemo.org. Then create /home/user/.navit and navit.xml/osd.xml. This works with demo map. But, after install Garmin map from http://ftp.pucpr.br/pub/tracksource/gmapsupp_v1002.zip and configured navit.xml, Navit don't display anything.
Anyone can perform test with that map?

PS.: Sorry my bad english.

I just tried it with svn-2982 (under scratchpad not my n800) and it lists:

Unfortunately I have no idea how to get something of this map shown. I guess I have to search for something. What towns in what country does it contain?

Re: Navit GPS (and libgarmin) for os2008
 

Although stdout shows the map is loaded. It does not appear in the menu (am using the gtk ui). So something is still wrong....

Re: Navit GPS (and libgarmin) for os2008
 

One step further. When the garmin map is the only mapset enabled in navit.xml it shows up in the menu. However when searching for a town it crashes when typing char number 3.

Re: Navit GPS (and libgarmin) for os2008
 

wdehoog thanks, this map is from Brazil, entire country, but navit don't show (at menu it's ok) and don't perform city/address search... I'll re-download map file and test again.

Re: Navit GPS (and libgarmin) for os2008
 

Searching in garmin maps seems to be broken. If you can get navit to start at the correct coordinate it does show the map. I now have this in ~/.navit/center.txt:

mg: -0x493eb7 -0x27ee87

and then it starts showing Rio de Janeiro.

Re: Navit GPS (and libgarmin) for os2008
 

wdehoog works! thanks for help. When I downloaded a new file it's work properly. Just now, I wainting for searching. Thank you very much. :D
