Re: [Xastir] Building dbfinfo

I duplicated the build of shapelib.a in the shapelib/contrib directory so that everything in there would build. I added the rest of the Shapelib tools to the build, which means you'll see more warnings now when you compile w/internal Shapelib. I also changed the make install for the Shapelib tools so that these tools will only get built (not installed where Xastir gets installed). You'll have to run them from the build directories or copy them to a directory in your path. -- Curt, WE7U. http://www.eskimo.com/~archer APRS: Where it's at!http://www.xastir.org Lotto: A tax on people who are bad at math. - unknown Windows: Microsoft's tax on computer illiterates. - WE7U.

[Xastir] Basic Questions
I'm running the lastest rev. On a Mac and I've gotten things working somewhat. I do have some questions though. 1. Does anyone have some examples of how to configure the TNC on a Kenwood TS-2000? 2. I have the OSM map up for my area but all that I get are lines with numbers. How do I get the objects and call signs to display? 3. How do I clear the map so that I can start fresh? If someone could point me in the right directon, it would be greatly appreciated. Tom, KF6KYD ___ Xastir mailing list Xastir@lists.xastir.org http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir

Latest development source release? CVS? If CVS, how long ago? 1. Does anyone have some examples of how to configure the TNC on a Kenwood TS-2000? That is a minimal Tasco-designed TNC like in the TH-D7A's and TM-D7[01]0's. Try one of these methods. Note that you can create all of these and just use one if you want to experiment. You can create up to 15 interfaces in Xastir: *) Interface-Interface Control-Add-Serial TNC Startup file: tnc-startup.d700 Stop file: tnc-stop.d700 *) Interface-Interface Control-Add-Serial TNC Startup file: tnc-startup.thd7 Stop file: tnc-stop.d700 *) Interface-Interface Control-Add-Serial KISS TNC Set the TNC to KISS mode before-hand *) Yet another option if running Linux: Set the TNC to KISS mode and run an AX25 TNC interface in Xastir. See our HOWTO for this on the Xastir website as it's a bit more complicated. 2. I have the OSM map up for my area but all that I get are lines with numbers. How do I get the objects and call signs to display? Are you using the online OSM maps or the downloaded Shapefile extracts from the OSM database? For APRS station/objects/items to display you'll need to have an interface up and running, RF or internet or both. I'm running one of each. Once you have an interface up and are receiving packets you should start seeing stations on your map with the default settings. If you've messed with them already, the Station-Filter Data and Station-Filter Display menus would be the place to re-enable things. 3. How do I clear the map so that I can start fresh? Map-Map Chooser-Clear-Apply or Clear-OK (OK makes the dialog go away, Apply doesn't). -- Curt, WE7U. http://www.eskimo.com/~archer APRS: Where it's at!http://www.xastir.org Lotto: A tax on people who are bad at math. - unknown Windows: Microsoft's tax on computer illiterates. - WE7U.

[Xastir] Installation Notes for Debian Lenny
Just a quick note to the list - a little test today verified that the installation notes in the Wiki for Mepis 8.x work for Debian Lenny as well with no changes. I added installation notes for Lenny to the Debian section, which conveniently are the Mepis instructions with a few names changed. http://www.xastir.org/wiki/HowTo:Debian_Lenny Regards, Lee - K5DAT Murphy, TX ___ Xastir mailing list Xastir@lists.xastir.org http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
