Hey,
At first, thank you very much for your application. It's very nice ...
But there are some questions:
1) The search function does not work on both of mine devices. I also started it using xterm. But the logs seem to be fine. There are simply no results.
2) The description, hint and log tabs as they are shown here: http://www.harbaum.org/till/maemo/gpxview6.jpg are missing on my device. where are they gone?

2) If there are no hints and no logs in your gpx file, then there are no hint and log tabs.
Are you sure you are using a full-featured GPX file?

And yet another major update. This includes support for gtkhtml-3 which allows gpxview to use the hildon help system. Furthermore zip files (as e.g. emailed from geocaching.com) can now directly be loaded. The Maemo Mapper export has been improved. You can now maintain an arbitrary number of "home" positions ... etc etc ...
See the changelog at http://www.harbaum.org/till/maemo/gpxview-changelog.txt for alle the details.

I think i get the way the applications works now. It behaves all as it should 
I miss understood the search feature. i thought i was for an online search on geocaching.com. but now, i know it is for searching the gpx files which are on the device.
I am not a premium member yet, so i would be great if someone could send me 3 full featured gpx files to check for me if it is worth the money
the 3 choosen ones are: GCJJWT, GCJ30G and GC10K3B.
by the way: it would be great if you could import a directory with all its subdirectories. this is because i have all my .locs in seperate folders. (/gpxview/<cachename>/geocaching.log)
so, when i add some new .locs i just would paste them into /gpxview/<cachename> and gpxview would add them in the list if i import the directory again.
a last thing:
the newest version gpxview (0.4-3) often hangs on my device. 0.3 didn't show this behavior. it occures when i am returning to gpxview after exporting a POI to maemo-mapper.
the POI thing export is not the best solution by the way. isn't there a DBUS api from maemo-mapper to add a poi? that would be much better because you do not have to restart maemo mapper all the time after exporting a POI to it.
i wrote gnuite a few times. he always has an open ear for requests and ideas. so, if it does not exists, i am sure this is an useful option.
Thanks again for this application

the POI thing export is not the best solution by the way. isn't there a DBUS api from maemo-mapper to add a poi? that would be much better because you do not have to restart maemo mapper all the time after exporting a POI to it.

Is there any chance you could have GPXView set the system time from the GPS? The GPS reports the time as one of the NMEA sentences, and it would be very convenient to be able to set the system time from the most accurate time standard available.
