does your remark about using mm on an n810 imply the version which has been working on the n810 and on the 800's with the 2008os can be removed and your new 2.1 version installed in it's place?

There are new versions of libgpsmgr and libgpsbt, but Nokia appears to have closed-source them (grr!), so I can't see how they work. Perhaps the new libgpsmgr controls access to the internal GPS receiver.
Regarding the status of Maemo Mapper 2.1 on Chinook: It is working here locally, but i had to do some hacks to the build-system i'd like to investigate before uploading the package. (I hope this will happen tomorrow.)

The last time I checked out http://gnuite.com:8080/nokia770/maemo-mapper/ I spotted a button marked 'Make A Donation'.
What is that for I wonder?

Just come back from a trip, Thank you Gnuite, great app. N800/2007OS/MMC boot, fresh installed 2.0.5 after executing the Xterm commands as described on thread#82. First, your help file is great. I keep reading good stuff everytime I read it, the second time the third time, useful info from your help file, strongly recommend for serious user of MM, at least read the 'setting' section. This help file is NOT like those run of the mill help file.
I tried to browse/search thru 300+ post and apologize if it has been posted.
- POI.db browse does not give you the option to change file location; manually edit file location will do it.
- POI returns lat/lon, when view/edit upon tapping on the purple dot, it returns 0.00000 and, will not be able to 'dl route to' POI. Couple of time, POI purple icon disappear after view/edit.
- POI create route to: return blank screen and error message "18 maps failed to dl". Veiw-goto-address will bring back the map. Still, failed to create route to POI.
I am considering install/keep an extra N800 in my car and my wife's car just because of the MM, thank you Gnuite. Hope the users we all will leave you some time to do other things then maintaining the MM.

Good news ! I don't know if it's due to the new 2.1 version or if it came with one of the 2.0x point releases (I confess I didn't think to check each time :-), but Maemo Mapper now find and loads its help file on my French tablet. At last I can now learn how it works :-)
Thanks again gnuite...

Maemo Mapper v2.1.1 has been released.
This small release fixes a couple minor bugs and adds a couple new DBUS signals for which third-party applications can listen.
This release does not install on OS2008. I will be releasing an OS2008-specific version of Maemo Mapper soon (within a week or two). There will have to be a separate binary for OS2008 - OS2006 and OS2007 will continue to be able to share the same binary. It's ironic that one of the big advantages of OS2008 is that it is available for the N800 (unlike the OS2006-to-OS2007 move), and yet it is even more incompatible with its predecessors than OS2007 was with OS2006.
CHANGELOG
* Changed the "set_view_center" method name to "set_view_position" for clarity.
* Added two new signals to the DBUS interface: view_position_changed and view_dimensions_changed.
* Fixed a bug in POI lat/lon handling (closes #1695).
