It is if you are attempting to import tiles created from map files which are far too large for even a desktop to handle easily. I have for example a tif file which is 55Meg....and gets tiled into 68 1280x1024 pixel images. And it supposedly can be done with gpsdriver. I just don't know how. And once I figure out how, on my laptop, I guess I will have to compile mapnik and gpsdriver for Diablo...
