One thing that modRana desperately needs is an option to keep the screen on!

But its in the pipeline for the turn-by-turn navigation functionality (most probably using espeak).

).Also If you installed from the linked deb package, I recommend upgrading to the Extras-devel version.

ModRana is finally available in Extras-devel !
The package is called modrana and can be found in the Location&navigation section.

hmmmmmmm..........well modrana.desktop appears but when i launch it, nothing happens. the app quits immediately after about 8 seconds or so of loading.
running it from xterm + root privileges works though.

just installed from -devel and can confirm above. when started from the app mgr it just dissapears. start as user from xterm gives:
~ $ modrana
/usr/bin/modrana: cd: line 2: can't cd to /opt/modrana/
python2.5: can't open file 'modrana.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory
~ $
running from xterm as root works fine. app itself looks very good at first glance though, will give it a good try soon, but routing, UI and options all look like it should be the best mapping app for maemo once you get around to adding eSpeak support. Thanks for a great start!

this may be wierd, but after
root
apt-get install modrana
it installed cloudgps
the icon was cloudgps and it launched the program cloudgps.
so i tried
apt-get install modrana
and it said it was already installed.
so i then
apt-get install cloudgps
and it said already installed
then
apt-get remove cloudgps
and it uninstalled the cloudgps
i looked for the modrana icon and nothing.
then, apt-get remove modrana
said it wasnt installed.
then i went to the dev repo and dl vs 6 there. transfered to my device and installed it.
dpkg -i "filename"
it said that it was going to replace the vs. 5!!! yet it said it wasnt installed. lol. confusing.
so after installation, it showed the icon, but crashed upon opening. i uninstalled it and then went directly to the deb file in my folder and opened it to install. after installation, it crashed upon opening.
after trying to open it 6 times with crashes, i have typed this feed for you.

I am surprised OVI maps doesnt have this and yet they are trying to push it out.
I would love to see TomTom release a version for maemo/meego would be good.
