I've been playing with QlandkarteGT a bit, and it looks like one of the better 
map apps I've seen, and it works very nicely with my GPS receiver, but I'm 
having trouble with storing maps for offline use. 

I have a Nokia N810 using Maemo Mapper, and it is quite happy to store any maps 
I get from OpenStreetMaps in its database for use on the road, but it appears 
that it's not so simple from QLGT. Is there a relatively easy way to save map 
data for offline use, preferably from OSM? Or is there a way to use the maps 
saved by Maemo Mapper? 

I've tried going through the procedures in the help documentation, but I'm 
clearly missing something important as I don't get anything visible. It appears 
that I can only capture small sections of map at a given resolution and then 
have to save them as images and add location data to each? And then for another 
resolution do the same? Not sure if I understand the basics of the procedure, 
let alone the details... :-( 

Sorry for being dense, I seem to need a push in the right direction.

Oh, this info is probably needed:
QLGT 1.4.0
QT library 4.7.2
GDAL 1.8.0 released 2012/1/12
Proj4 library 470

Running on Linux Mint 11 (Katya).

Thanks for any help you might be able to provide...
