Earlier with the Neo FreeRunner phone I already used Debian's FoxtrotGPS for general "where am I" sort of navigation and Navit for car navigation with speech support. Both are still there in Ubuntu as well, and have seen several updates. navit however needs heavy configuration (or a ready-made GUI .xml file) to be touch friendly and have speech support, but it's certainly doable. Navit has a Qt frontend nowadays so maybe it could work as is (with the mentioned configuration), or was it that QPainter based apps don't work straight away, only QML/Quick? FoxtrotGPS is a GTK application and we don't have support for normal X applications (or GTK on top of Mir) yet. And yes, Marble, as mentioned. And monav (the routing daemon of which is used by Marble). All need some love so that they'd work 'out-of-the-box', but a lot of the heavy lifting of creating map and navigation applications has been done already in the projects. -Timo -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
