Yes, it should work without activation. > The directory /root/Maps seems to find some consensus between Qtopia and > Debian concerning > the location of OpenStreetMap data that was downloaded for offline reuse.

Downloaded maps are user data, thus should be below ~ (i.e. /root while running as root, /home/someone while running as a normal user). That said, it should probably be in ~/.tangoGPS, to follow unix convention. > How can I quit using tangoGPS without using the Unix shell to kill it?

It should be done by mokomaze in a system-agnostic way. The most general solution to that seems to be xdg-screensaver with the "suspend WindowID" and "resume WindowID" options. Then Debian should provide a extended version of xdg-screensaver that claims the Display resource from the frameworkd.
