Where does modrana source it's poi's from? Is it from an online source, or is there a way of loading them offline? I can never see any poi's in my area.

But anyway, could you give me a full cmd wording to get permission?

Quick reply.
Turned logging on, returned to the map. OK.
Went to logging, change colour->green, and it showed map, not black screen.
>a full cmd wording to get permission?
chmod 0777 /opt/modrana
If permission is denied, gain root first, and then try again.
Like:
sudo gainroot
chmod 0777 /opt/modrana
Try running ./modrana.py from directory /opt/modrana/ in X Terminal. The application should write down the errors into X Terminal.

thanks for the app. I had never used a gps before in my life (pretty sad, I'm 44) and modrana got my wife and I out of a lost situation over the weekend.

I see it defaulted to something called mapnik and OSM in my .modrana_tiles folder and they take up 50 and 42 mb respectivly. should I be downloading other stuff or is this good, what I have.

You can test this by typing something like this to the search field in Google Maps:
Code:
pizza near 60.205556, 24.655556
The POI search in modRana works like this, you select the a keyword by pressing one of the buttons + current coordinates are used.

(I found a bug causing a empty/black screen in the track logging menu, will be fixed in the next build)

Also, it is now possible to set where to search for POI -> near view/near current position and more options (near an address/tracklog start/end, etc.) are planned.
