Strange. Did you run gpsd? Last time I played with navit in qtmoko, I realized that qtmoko does not run automatically gpsd. Some packaging work must still be done to manage gpsd when GPS device is switched on/off and when navit is started/stopped. As far as I know, NeronGPS uses raw device directly (does not use gpsd), and directly switch on/off the power for the device. At the opposite, navit is really well packaged in SHR. A simple tap on the navit icon and everithing goes well. Perhaps someone can pick some ideas from SHR to port them to qtmoko. Nevertheless, this is all the reason why I wish to start a dedicated project. A base distribution with just some configuration to: - power up the device at start time - save and restore the A-GPS data - start navit - some choices to optimize rendering on Freerunner (refresh rate, detail level...) -- Guilhem BONNEFILLE -=- JID: [email protected] MSN: [email protected] -=- mailto:[email protected] -=- http://nathguil.free.fr/ _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
