How do I do this?

I am currently in Australia.
I can download Japan maps by Google without any problem. Just zoom out, pan the map until you are over Japan, and zoom in again.

All,

I got missing packages: libhildon1(>= 2.2.10)
libpixman-1-0 (>= 0.15.16)

While trying to upgrade the app from 3.0+beta2 to 3.0+beta4 over the air. How do I get the missing package?

firmware on N900: PR1.1.1

thank,

Ok, but what about zoom levels, which are recommended and how many can we download (or how much space does it take up)?

I thought I read some where that there was 2GB limit.

I just picked a range for part of the greater area of Tokyo and it said 13,000 tiles. I am assuming that's a lot.

The package has been built using PR1.2 SDK hence the missing dependencies, wait for PR1.2

To expand on what the previous poster said:

It looks like the Autobuilder system that maemo.org has been updated to use the 1.2 SDK which has caused some incompatibilities for some applications (Maepad is one other I noticed), given that pretty much everyone still has Fremantle 1.1.x on their N900's. Hopefully this means that the 1.2 update for the N900 is coming out real soon...

Did you then try using it off line?

When I tried this the maps did not load.

I updated via dpkg -i, and the application seems to work fine (including some promised bug fixes and minor UI tweaks).

I'm guessing that the program runs because it is able to utilize the older versions of dependencies that are now "missing"?

wazzup_skip: the 2GB limit is only there if you keep the default $HOME directory size. I'm not sure if Mapper requires FAT32 formatting or if it'll use any file system, but there are some instructions (not for the meek) that explain how to expand your home partition so you could store more maps.
