I changed both the URL and the cache file path. The URL to fix a problem, the cache to permit adequate storage space

I believe posts #254 and #256 to which I was replying only referred to an inability to connect to the repository - Oops - wrong, see next post...

The (Google Street) URL that worked for me is as post #257:

http://mt.google.com/vt/lyrs=m@118&x=%d&y=%d&zoom=%d

That goes in the "URL Format" line in the Google Street repository from "Manage Repositories"

This isn't an error with Maemo Mapper, as previously noted (I don't want to take credit for figuring this out), Google changed their URL's so we just needed to match that to connect to the repositories. This was the reason my maps "failed to download"

With the process as outlined, I was able to update all of my Mapper repositories to the current Google source repository.

I then changed my default cache file path from the internal memory to my external media card to allow for better storage. I did it through the "Browse" function of the Cache DB line after creating a MMaps folder.

The file path was then:

/media/mmc1/MMaps/GStreet

I used the same names for the higher level folder and Google Street maps as the program defaults

The best place for all things Maemo Mapper is:

Note I'm using an N800 with an external GPS so some of the 810 stuff doesn't apply to me. I've also never had any trouble with anything other than the repository URL so I haven't tried any of the troubleshooting or problem fixes outlined. I cannot speak to any other devices.

There's also a wiki for the program

Here's the garage page where bugs and whatnot are reported, though I don't know how active it is:

https://garage.maemo.org/projects/maemo-mapper/

Note the program was last updated for OS2008, so I have no idea how it'd work on the N900

I also have A-GPS installed (though I'm not sure if it has helped any, but it's supposed to). And I just installed City Guide which is neat too.

It really is a great program - Enjoy!
