If by setting the map destination in the getmaps window that I screenshotted previously is what you mean, then yes it is set to point to the internal card. Or is there somewhere else I have to set that? tx

If the folder exists you should be fine. Roadmap will look for maps in /media/mmc1/roadmaps AND /media/mmc2/roadmaps. So either one will work.

As for downloading, The first time a map is downloaded from the osmgetbmap.php proxy, the proxy downloads the XML data from openstreetmaps.org and converts it to OSM binary format. You may just be waiting on the server to download and convert the tile. Once a tile has been downloaded, it is cached on the server so the next request for that tile will be much faster. On a DSL connection it took me less than 10 seconds to download the tile number in your screen shot and <45 seconds to get all tiles within 10km...

If you wait a minute or two and still see no progress, try running from xterm via-

$ getmaps_osm

and report back any errors...

Thanks,

try it with your locale and post back.
Fixed for me !

Thank you again !

Does bluetooth GPS work on the n800 with Roadmap? I put the code in and crossed my fingers... I don't have an n800, so I'm relying on external feedback to support n800 users.

Thanks,

When I run from xterm and do the same thing (see my earlier post) it shows an "Segmentation Fault" on exit.

[Grog and Kernelpanic]:

Those are the steps I did to make the bluetooth GPS work on the N800 in roadmap and getmaps:

1- You need to find the MAC address of your bluetooth GPS. Please turn off any other Bluetooth device near (the discoverability)...
Turn on the BT-GPS and with bluez-utils installed - issue in xterm "hcitool scan".

2- Select and copy the MAC address.

3- in RoadMap preferences select the bluetooth tab and paste the MAC address in Bluetooth address and select Bluetooth enabled yes.

...

(No need to open maemo-mapper before roadmap in N800 anymore!)

PD. with Bluetooth-GPS enabled the processor is constantly in 52-55% and when I move the map it goes 100%...

O.K. That helps some. Right now though I wish I had an n800 to reproduce this on... I can't reproduce this on my n810.

So, another question-
Does this happen with GPS disabled? (That's the only real difference I can think of between the n800 and the n810 AFA Roadmap is concerned. Bluetooth vs. onboard.)

Let me know. Until then, At least I know I'm looking for a NULL pointer

thanks,
kernelpanic

p.s.- As for bluetooth working at all I'm glad. I put the code in and crossed my fingers prettymuch. Thanks for helping me figure this out. It's hard when one doesn't have the hardware...

When not using the BT-GPS the processor usage is very low but when I move the map to an populated area still exits with an segmentation fault!...

I had the same issues with the earlier release - entering the bt gps mac address did the trick for me with this build.

A little simpler method if you had already paired it -
Control Panel/Bluetooth/Devices/select your gps/edit
Your mac address is the last entry in the device details.

Working great on my N800 without the other gps apps!

I think this URI has a typo, which will take you to a parasite website.

The link should be to openstreetmap.org — no "s"

Are you using virtual memory? If so how much?
