navit 0.2.0~svn2916+dfsg.1-1maemo1

Car navigation system with routing engine Navit is a car navigation system with routing engine. Its modular design is capable of using vector maps of various formats for routing and rendering of the displayed map. It's even possible to use multiple maps at a time. The GTK+ or SDL user interfaces are designed to work well with touch screen displays. Points of Interest of various formats are displayed on the map. The current vehicle position is either read from gpsd or directly from NMEA GPS sensors. The routing engine not only calculates an optimal route to your destination, but also generates directions and even speaks to you using speech-dispatcher.

Comments:

It makes no sense to get this into Extras until it doesn't take a computer science degree to put this together into a usable state. :)

Hms,

I see now it was to early to upload it to extras-testing, because he autobuilder segfaulted on image generation. I have some gui Improvments too, so the OSD buttons look like on n8xx.

Bye Henning

If I can get this to work in 10min you get my wote. I have read a lot in Talk about this and maps free and nonfree maps. To much hassle to test it with maps. The app starts after install, but i cant use it, before i use a lot of time on it.

What part of the OSM license doesn't allow you to package and redistribute the OSM map?

And all this manual tweaking of parameters is really way beyond the capabilities of an end user. May i suggest to offer separate "map packages" for popular countries/areas/whatever? This way the program could be used directly after installation.

Hi,

sorry how to enable maps I posted to the wrong comments-side.

For the mameo-package only converted openstreetmap support is compiled in.

And because of the OSM license you cann't include the maps into the package.

Download your map directly from

http://maps.navit-project.org/download/

and name it foo.bin

Edit /home/user/navit/maps.xml

and put the line

<map type="binfile" enabled="yes" data="/home/user/foo.bin"/≶

into it.

Because of packging policy I will not put this file into user home-dir.

Beeing finger-friendly is based on the user, I have no problems with it.

The crashes comes from the gps and will be fixed next week.

  • bugtracker/mailto link missing
  • pressing Enter brings up Settings. pressing Enter again occasionally returns to the Map.
  • Map is not displayed. How can maps be used?
  • options are not finger-friendly. something that a car-navigation system should have IMO.
  • frequent crashes.
