If you have either libcurl or wget compiled into that version,
and working copies of those on your system, you should be able to
use some of the Online maps as well.

Re: [Xastir] Screen shot sharing

2009-03-16 Thread Tom Hayward
I'd just post it to something like http://tinypic.com/ and send the
link to the list.

If you're trying to create semi-permanent documentation, you should be
able to still host at something like tinypic and reference in the
wiki. It'd be nice to have upload capability on the wiki though.

Thanks Lee.  I just checked Synaptic and the libdb4.6-dev package is already
loaded.

  Can you (or anyone) foresee any major deltas (or gotchya's) that I might

  Thank you for your time and contribution to the Wiki/HowTo.

  I'm glad to hear the documentation is helping out.  A while back I
  took the older Ubuntu installation notes and updated them to cover
  8.10, but I can only take a small portion of the credit because there
  isn't much difference between the update and what is in the older
  version (written by Tom Russo).  The portion of the 8.10 version that
  shows what to do if the binary version was installed previously is
  verbatim from the older version.

am
getting an error...
   
/usr/include/Xm/Xm.h error:X11/extension/Print.h

Also xastir is located in my /usr/bin/xastir  /usr/lib/xastir

 try

download ./get-fcc-rac.pl files it ends with Can't open
/usr/local/share/xastir/fcc/EN.dat: NO such file or directory at
./get-fcc-rac.pl line 69...
Reason being is that in the /usr/local/share there isn't xastir
   there...???
   
Can anyone using 8.10 help me out here...

   *Hello Bill
  
   Thanks for the info about this web site...What I did was to remove
   xastir-1.9.2 completely, I followed the instructions from the wiki
 site
   for Ubuntu 8.10...Everything was compiled in except for gdal, xastir
   1.9.5 now works...
  
   But I see only a gray background, with grid lines, calls, cars etc.,
   but

   Might you, or someone else enlighten me as to how I can get a map to

Re: [Xastir] More Tiger maps questions

Thanks for all of the help and advise with the Tiger/Line 2008 maps.

Yes please.  Since nobody's done it yet, we'd all benefit from you
donating the dbfawk's back to the project so that they could be
distributed with Xastir itself.

Don't worry about getting them 100% correct first either:  Just
updating to the 2008 maps would be a major improvement, and we can
worry about tweaking them here and there as time goes on to improve
the look and feel.  Everything goes into CVS so it is a snap for any
of the developers to update files at any time.

It's also likely that some of the changes necessary to make them
look like the online maps will require actual code changes and not
just dbfawk tweaks.


OK.  Now, I'll need some guidance with submitting to CVS, or I can  
zip them up and send to you, Curt, for inclusion into CVS.

Great!  That beats trying every number until you get what you want  ;-)



3. ?Anyone know which shapefile contains the background color  
(looks like

light-grey) for the maps?


None of them - it's on the map - configure - background color menu.


The first time I tried that, the background was already set for  
White.  That tells me that the shapefiles override (somehow) the  
default b/g color.  I then selected another b/g color , then went  
back to White.  That's when the b/g color changed to White indeed.   
Perhaps this is normal.  But, at least I now get White, and it seems  
to stay that way between xastir sessions.


Finally,
