Hello all and 73s my name is George, callsign SV4LAX, QTH Volos Greece, KM19LI
I am new to the group so pls go easy on my transgressions hi my introduction to Linux - Ubuntu distro and Xastir happened during Xmas and so far I am quite fascinated. However, the only complaint that I have re: xastir is the fact that is it very difficult for me too to make it accept uiview maps, of which there is an abundance around. I tried the script and procedure mentioned @ http://zl3ame.blogspot.com/2008/11/using-uiview-maps-with-xastir.html, however no joy at all. The only thing I got to work was a shp vector package, however the xastir experience would be complete with the uiview maps integration. Should any member of the group have any input on the issue, I would receive it with much appreciation regards and 73s George SV4LAX PS the Xastir version that I am running now on several Ubuntu 8.10 PCs was installed through Synaptic On Mon, 2009-03-02 at 10:00 -0800, ml41782 wrote: > Funny you should say quiet.... > > Anyone running v1.9.2 and Ubunto Linux ? > > Hell of a problem trying to get the maps working on this thing.
