All QtMoko applications are on github so that it's easy to find them and 
rebuild the binary repository from sources. I have also placed your app here:

http://github.com/radekp/NeronGPS

If you are comfortable with git and github you can just create account on 
github, fork the repo and work here.

Hi Ghislain,

This is unfortunately not a feature I'm planing to use myself. Doing this in my 
spare time - which is actually not that many time :( - I will tend to focus on 
my own needs first. 

Would it help to share the code with a version control system, to enable 
additional developers to join the effort?

I'm completely new to this. I would need help in this case. 

Regards,
Thierry

Very nice application!

If you could just add the 'myposition' and the 'friendsposition', like in
TangoGPS you would make me very happy :) (I was trying to port TangoGPS to
Qt just for those functions, but you are almost done).

Wow - very, very nice! Thanks a lot!
I especially like the finger-friendly buttons (zoom in / out and "home
position").

Hi Radek,

Taking a closer look, it may actually not be pixmap drawing performances. It 
looks like interruption when moving, that may just come from touch screen event 
coming irregularly, or anything else delaying the refresh of the map.

I am looking forward for the new kernel, it would probably solve the issue!

Thierry

There are 2 things different in QtMoko. 2.6.29 kernel and Qt 4.5. I think Qt 
4.5 improved the performance. The kernel can be the problem. I am now testing 
2.6.31 kernel and performance of your app is good. Also scrolling in web 
browser improved with 2.6.31 so it can be something in 2.6.29 kernel.

Thanks for this nice application.

Btw i noticed two small things:

1/ The path to icon in NeronGPS.desktop is not right. It should be something 
like Icon=NeronGPS/NeronGPS.png

2/ The icon is too small - it does not fit in well in the application list. 
Solution could be either bigger png or svg.

Otherwise i havent found any issue :)

I have been looking for 4.4.3, and not QTmoko. It is working a lot better
for me.

Could someone please supply me with rootfs and kernel?

GPS application for QTExtended 4.4.3

[tvuillaume]

Hello,

I developed my own GPS application for QtExtended 4.4.3 on my Neo Freerunner. 
It use native Qt APIs and doesn't require X. It display maps from OpenStreetMap 
by default, but can also be configured to get them from Yahoo or VirtualEarth. 
I'm not sure for Google, I gave up trying for now.

I will continue to maintain it for my personal usage. I have no idea if it may 
interest someone, but, if any interest, I released the package, the source 
code, and some documentation here:

http://tvuillaume.free.fr/NeronGPS

The User's Guide provide you with some screenshots and information about what 
the application is able to achieve.

Unfortunately, pixmap drawing performances looks degraded on QtMoko (I tested 
with v14), impacting performances when moving in the map. This is much better 
on the original QtExtended 4.4.3. If anybody have an idea about where it may 
come from, and if something can be done to improve, I would be interested.

Best Regards,
Thierry
