Jonas, Have you seen this page on the wiki regarding this package and Ubuntu 10.04?
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/JOSM/Plugins/WMSPlugin#gnome-web-photo_for_Fedora_and_Ubuntu On Ubuntu 10.04 'Lucid Linx' 1. Install gnome-web-photo through synaptic (version used 0.8-0ubuntu2) 2. Select gnome-web-photo --mode=photo --format=png {0} /dev/stdout as the downloader at the bottom of the WMS preferences pane. Then you can choose the "Yahoo Sat" option from the WMS pull down menu to get the background to download. You might have to zoom out a bit if data is not available at the current zoom level. I assume this is where you got your idea to downgrade from, but there are parameters you need to set within JOSM on Ubuntu to make sure its output is correctly piped to stdout (see step 2). I hope this does not tell you something you already know. I am sorry if it does. _AJS On Mon, May 24, 2010 at 5:25 PM, Jonas Minnberg <[email protected]> wrote: > Regardless of Ubuntu version, I have always had to downgrade gnome-web-photo > to get the josm WMS-plugin to work (without the latest version some images > load after minutes, most not at all). > In Ubuntu 10.4 the downgrade is no longer compatible with other packages - > any suggestions? > -- Jonas Minnberg > > _______________________________________________ > newbies mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/newbies > > _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/newbies
