Is navigation only available with the prebuilt OSM binary map data for Navit? I have one of the prebuilt planet.bin files and I can successfully (well, somewhat) search for towns, etc. However, I also downloaded 2 other smaller binary maps files from http://maps.navit-project.org/download/ and there seems to be no searchable town data in those files, or at least Navit doesn't find any when I try to search a town. The only one it finds is some place called "Matei" when I enter an M. Sorry if this is somewhere on the Navit site, I ddin't see it.
