Good luck, from me too!

Meanwhile, I got something else to report - it seems, that there is error somewhere, in calculating average speed (bicycle mode, for example). I did some tests during last, long trip, and every time, average speed was much lower, than it should be.

Example - I restarted ModRana while driving @80 Km/h. For a short while, average speed was 80 Km/h. Then, for few seconds I slowed down to 62 Km/h, but average speed got to 29 Km/h (!). Since that, despite I've never slowed down to ~30 Km/h, average stayed around that, changing only a few kilometers/h up or down.

Whole thing is perfectly repeatable.

On another note - sorry if it was asked before, but could you add OpenRoutingService to list of available on-line routing providers? Currently, it is only google or Monav, while ORS seems perfectly compatible (correct me, if I'm wrong).

Cheers,
/Estel

doesn't fix the original problem but is easy to apply.

I haven't been here in a few days. Good luck from me too, MartinK! Hopefully your thesis looks awesome in printed form.

I have started using modRana in the car more as I need to travel more for a project, so obviously here come some feature requests

1) ability to show something else than a clock - for me this would be a speed indicator but I imagine other stuff can be put there too

2) support for speedcams like jspeed does

3) a quick way to load different preset configs, or a way to change tile caching based on map choice, or not cache overlays (or clear cache after certain age): I'm using the google traffic overlay sometimes and I look for an easy way to toggle that on/off, and I get the feeling the data is cached as sometimes I suspect I see stale data. Of course in the car I have no easy way to verify against a known working google traffic source like webbrowser (not while driving!)

For Peturs first request:

In /home/user/.modrana folder there is file user_config,conf which you can edit and enable/disable various osd parts like the clock and speed. It is commented so you can easily see how it works.

If you out it in bike mode it shows speed instead of the clock.

Per Kossuth's post, you can play around with the config file to show what you want in each mode...

Sending to print = going to nearby bookstore/copy-center and giving them the PDF, so they can print it and make two bound copies (I already ordered the book covers, which should be already prepared). No large scale printing runs (yet ! ).
Heh, I remember printing my bachelors thesis. The uni colour printers cost 30p/sheet. So a 70 page document was going to cost £21 per copy! And they wanted 2 copies!!!

BS I thought. Fortunately the uni printers where set up in such a way that your print job got sent to a central server, the monies deducted from your account then the job was sent to the printer.

After a bit of fiddling I figured out the IP address of the printer. I would then print my document to a file. Then I would use the LPR command from CMD and just send the print job strait to the printer.

Boom!

Free printing!
