Tom, Thanks for the quick reply. I'll check out the thread when I get home (on iPad now).
It seems to me that it would be sub-ideal for general use but that for special cases it might be perfect. The Pi is small, cheap, and light. It might be a nice piece to a small system for a local event where a small custom vector map, or no map, might be adequate. It sounds like it can run, and that's a big step. --Chip/N1MIE On Aug 6, 2012, at 12:17, Tom Russo <[email protected]> wrote: > On Mon, Aug 06, 2012 at 11:56:29AM -0400, we recorded a bogon-computron > collision of the <[email protected]> flavor, containing: >> Has anyone tried to run Xastir on a Raspberry Pi? > > n1mjf posted a while back that he was using Xastir on his Raspberry Pi.
