[talk-au] gpsdrive and linux
A request for John and Liz or any one else who may be interested. I have totally rebuilt the deb packages for gpsdrive now and would be interested in your thoughts. The new svn package can be downloaded from here: http://www.4x4falcon.com/gpsdrive/debian/ You will need to download: gpsdrive_2.10svn2452_i386.deb openstreetmap-map-icons_16414_all.deb openstreetmap-map-icons-square.small-minimal_16414_all.deb to try it out and then use dpkg -i as root to install these three ie dpkg -i openstreetmap-map-icons_16414_all.deb \ openstreetmap-map-icons-square.small-minimal_16414_all.deb \ gpsdrive_2.10svn2452_i386.deb You may see that you need to install some other libraries, libmapnik and libboost-* If you do apt-get install libmapnik0.5 this should install the other libboost-* dependencies. Don't use mapnik 0.6 it currently does not work with gpsdrive. I would set up a repo for it but I have not had time to sort that out yet. Anyway TIA -- Cheers Ross ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au

I don't really want to re-install my eeePC before the Nambour thing, so I'll try it in about 2 weeks time. However my comments about using mapnik still stands, it seems like over kill to run a full relational database to handle map rendering. ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au

Should not require a rebuild as it only needs the three deb's listed in the previous email and will install libmapnik and two others associated with that. I've removed the 299 or whatever it was dependencies that previously existed and wanted users other than the dev's to try it out. -- Cheers Ross ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
Re: [talk-au] gpsdrive and linux
apt-get autoremove gpsdrive libmapnik0.5 openstreetmap-map-icons Will remove it completely. Initial disk space is now 28Mb for all of the above and I'm looking at reducing that further with improved initial raster maps. Disk space then used will depend on your map requirements and if you want to use the osm data directly. Any way when you get a chance would be appreciated.

No I meant to clean up my hdd if I wanted to get rid of it, but I'm trying not to do too much to the eeePC for the next week or so. Will try it after that. ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
