I have in mind a project that involves making my old laptop into a large-screen GPS. Maybe someone on this list can refer me to where this has been mentioned before. My OS of choice is linux, but the laptop will still run winXP, and there will be no continuing internet connection so I am prepared to use the winXP side of things.
So far, I have got both gpsdrive and tangogps working separately on the laptop. I have also got a usb gps receiver providing data ... so while I have internet access, I get street maps thru openstreetmaps. However, I want to put say all of NSW onto a large usb card ... and make it the repository ... so that maps will come up on the screen as I wish. Can anyone help with this ...
