Maybe the voice sinthetizer says it but while driving it's not easy to heard my freerunner (the speaker is to low to be heard in the traffic or if I'm listening some music), while often I've to force the refresh from the interface. >> I am also a programmer, but this seems to be a untrivial issue for a >> newbie for that code. > If you're willing to help, feel free to contact me or join #navit on > freenode. You will get there all the help you should need :) Nice. I'd like also to ask you a thing about the SDL interface... I've not tried to compile it in my toolchain/OE build due to the fact that I had no time to port/compile the missing libraries, but would it work well in the Freerunner (that has not 3d hardware acceleration)? -- Treviño's World - Life and Linux http://www.3v1n0.net/ _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
