Hi all, as said in a previous message, I am quite new to both Linux (Ubuntu 8.10 Distro) and Xastir (as added by Synaptic), previous OS was winXP and APRS work was done on uiview32-agwpe. Being a newbie i am a priori asking the group for understanding.
As discussed in a previous message, I have already added perl 5, Imagemagick and Graphicmagick, and being located in Greece (ie no Tigermaps will do) made numerous attempts with 'The Script'. This ends up with a .geo file, that I copy with gksudo nautilus to /usr/share/xastir/maps, along with the rest. So far no joy at having xastir show the uiview-derived jpeg maps. The only success I have so far is incorporating .shp files for Greece and Europe, as found @ downloads.cloudmade.com. These work nicely. However it would be nice not to have the stockpile of uiview maps go to waste, so any input on my predicament will most certainly be welcome.
