Thank you much for helping:
I installed with apt-get install exastir
Built-in map types:

Support for these additional map types has been compiled in:
geo Image map (ImageMagric Libary, many formats allowed)
geo URL (internet maps viaLibcurl libary)
shp ESRI Shapfile maps (Shapfile Libary)
fistival_client: connect to server failed

I have xastir installed and I have an Icon displayed but no maps.
The online maps do not display and I have not been able to display
maps from map dirrectory. What have I done wrong? I am using
Linux Xandros.
Tell us:
Did you compile Xastir from sources or install an Xastir binary?
That tells us whether somebody else made all the library/helper-app
choices and you might be missing some, or whether you made the
choices. It also directs our path a bit as to a possible set of
solutions.
Is anything displayed in the Xterm that you start Xastir from? If
you're not starting it from an Xterm, try it now so that you can see
the text.
In the startup text, does it mention either "curl" or "wget"? Does
it mention either GraphicsMagick or ImageMagick? Does it say that
internet maps are enabled?
What does your LANG variable say ("echo $LANG")? Try setting it to
"C" and then running Xastir in that shell. This sets up the C
library read/write functions so they operate properly for our
config files and such. If you're running a BASH shell, type:
export LANG=C
Did you reindex your maps?
Map->Configure->INDEX: Reindex ALL Maps
Anything I'm forgetting?
