Hi

2010/7/7 KaZeR <[email protected]>
        I am trying to use the Maemo version from chollya.org/navit.
        It more or less works but I found the following issues:

It is my playground, so it is not even supposed to work :-)
  
        - Theming does not work properly, coordinates and sizes areas
        tend to
        become way too large
        

Could you please give me a better described example? 
  
        - Transparency in themes does not work, solid backgrounds become
        100%
        filling and are not opaque

Yes, i know about this issue and i have plans to fix it.
  
        - Drawing error - I quite have "streets" or other linear
        elements
        crossing the whole screen. Especially in not so dense areas this
        happens
        more frequently. Seems like a clipping issue.

Unable to reproduce this issue. What maps you are using? It is well
known, that maps from cloudmade could be broken, causing similar
symptoms.
  
        - Hangs very often - especially when zooming in/out Navit just
        freezes -
        my be related to the clipping issue?

Same as above. I use those builds for my real-life navigation and spent
up to 6 hours per day driving to somewhere, and navit stays active for
all the time. It could be caused by broken maps too.
  
        It could also have to do with alignment
        issues. This is a quite common problem with porting software to
        ARM
        since ARM has a strict type alignment - "pragma pack" could
        probably
        help at the right spot?
        

May be. I have to look into the code thoroughly/
  
        And for this issue I am not sure if it also applies to x86:
        
        - Button positions / functions from themes are not honored -
        e.g. the
        zoom-in / zoom-out button function is always lower left and
        right of the
        screen.
        I have to test this more.
        

Hmm, check this layout:
http://wiki.navit-project.org/index.php/OSD_Layouts#nibbler01_v0.2_for_Netbook_.26_widescreen
 

I'm using it on my n900 (and on my development workstation too) and zoom
buttons are happily working while sitting at the right top corner of the
screen. Could you please show your OSD config?
  
        Anyway, nice stuff being bale to have whole Germany with me on
        my N900
        without the need for an online connection!

Thanks!
  
        Hopefully the above mentioned issues can be resolved some day.
        If I can
        help diagnose the above further, just let me know.
        

  Sure, more bug reports - less bugs in the future :-)
