I had the same, uninstall Maemo Mapper and install the link mensioned in http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...d.php?p=232003

that is todays version, I actually installed --> https://garage.maemo.org/frs/downloa...2008_armel.deb which worked fine.

i did a complete uninstall...downloaded 2.4.2-os2008 and it wouldnt install correctly

Re: maemo mapper upgrade problem
 

I did *this* link with 2.4.1:
https://garage.maemo.org/frs/downloa...2008_armel.deb
which did work.
The 2.4.2 version didn't work either on my N810.

Re: maemo mapper upgrade problem
 

Same problem here. Looks like the maemo-mapper.desktop file is missing.

I downloaded the file above, extracted the files from the archive (the .deb) using 7-zip, copied the maemo-mapper.desktop file from \usr\share\applications\hildon\ in the archive to the same directory on the N800, and it's back in extras.

edit: spoke too soon; it's there, but it doesn't run from the menu. still looking for solution

Problem seems more than just a missing icon. I was outside for about 30 minutes and could not get a GPS lock. Watching the GPS status, only one black bar would appear (and very weak) . Uninstalled 2.4.2 and went back to 2.4.1 and everything is fine now.

I have the same problem with 2.4.2. If I uninstall it and reinstall 2.4.1 will I lose any maps or configurations.

Re: maemo mapper upgrade problem
 

No, I went also back to 2.4.1 version and my maps are all there like before that upgrade mess.

It's the post install script that fails:

Setting up maemo-mapper (2.4.2-os2008) ...
Cache file created successfully.
dpkg: error processing maemo-mapper (--configure):

Thanks, markku, I'm back to good old 2.4.1
