(referring to PR1.2 fixing the problem of Mappero making the N900 hang).

I just had my N900 hang under Mappero today. I have PR1.2. I stressed it a bit: I got home, where there was a wifi connection, and tried to bring up some menus while the machine was dealing with the network coming back. I wound up completely hung and had to snap the battery; first time I've been forced to do that. I'm running beta8, BTW.

(Also under beta8, it didn't find the en_US voices even though they're there. I dealt with that by moving the Interlingua files to a "ia" subdirectory and copying the en_US files into the mapper sound root.)

Sorry for the n00b question but could you help me to find out what i missed

I did
echo $LC_MESSAGES
pl_PL
mkdir /opt/maemo/use/share/sounds/mapper/pl_PL
cp all spx file to that folder.

Still no sound when navigating (I have "enable voice announcements" ticked)

Is there any additional package I have to install or did I miss something?

I recorded the Finnish voice prompts. It would be nice if you could choose any voice file you like. You could record your own funny voices, if you don`t want to listen to an "official" voice.

Hi Steffe, I cannot open that zip file, I get this error:
Archive: Mappero-voice-prompts-fi_FI.zip
End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not
a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the
latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on
the last disk(s) of this archive.

Could you post the unzipped version of the file (or if you want, compress it in some other way)?

TIA!
Alberto

Hi mardy! The file he posted seems to be a RAR archive. Renaming it to that and extracting works for me. I guess he renamed it because the forum here only allows attachments with certain extensions (and has a pretty tight file size limit as well).

Cheers!

Thanks Jan, that did the trick!:)

Re: Mappero voice navigation: submit your voice, in your own language!
 

Hello Jan! You guessed right. I only have WinRAR and don`t want to install a lot of archivers. Stupid idea to rename it, but this forum has clever guys:)

Keep up the good work Mardy!

"Käänny hieman oikealle / vasemmalle"...hmmmm.... sounds a bit strange.
Perhaps a better translation would be "Käänny viistosti oikealle / vasemmalle" ??
