gnuite,
GPX route importing doesn't work for me either.
I also get "Error parsing GPX file"
Can it be because my "actual" position in Maemo Mapper, and the starting position in the gpx file differ?

Just figured out the "Error parsing GPX file" !!!
When I used GPX Driving Directions page, I simple chose "save"... and then placed that xml file on the rsmmc card...
The problem is that the file is a html file... and not the gpx file...
so.. the solution is to copy the output on the browser... and then paste that on a new file...

And, if you want to make it start out somewhere else... and you don't have a GPS receiver you can do something like this:
Code:gconftool-2 --type float --set /apps/maemo-mapper/last_longitude -- -115 gconftool-2 --type float -- set /apps/maemo-mapper/last_latitude 45

I played around with the maemo-mapper yesterday and today... and is great!
I tried once to download map along the route, and it did download, but the wrong maps (this is the only problem I saw). Here is the screenshot:

What I think will be useful in future versions is to be able to mark a point, for example "My House", or "My Office".. etc. Anyway less features means stable application and I prefer stable!
Thanks again gnuite.

gnuite,

I also get "Error parsing GPX file"
Can it be because my "actual" position in Maemo Mapper, and the starting position in the gpx file differ?
Just a few notes:
without a gps, when I restart the program, it always defaults to 0:0 a the previous zoom level... and not the previous manual LAT/LONG selection.
It would be nice, in the Maps/download Area, if we could copy the actual view center LAT and LONG with "copy" button.. without having to type the actual numbers...
It would be nice, if the previous inserted values could stay in memory, for example, to set the top-left, and the going to the map, defining the bottom-right, and comming back to the Maps/download Area, and set this final value (without loosing the previous top-left entry).
Also, GPX Driving Directions Webpage, uses port 8080.
this makes it impossible to use this feature from certain firewalls/mobile services that only allow port 80...

Did that problem persist after you restarted Maemo Mapper? What is the location (lat/lon would be nice, or just city/state/country) in the screenshot?

That's the problem. How exactly do I modify /etc/profile? When I try typing that in, it says permission denied (I'm in root).
sed 's@PATH *=[^/]*@&/var/lib/install/usr/bin:@' /etc/profile > /tmp/profile.new

If you don't have vim to edit the /etc/profile file, copy/paste this sed command into your XTerm:
Use cat to make sure that the new profile (in /tmp/profile.new) looks okay, and if it does, move it to /etc/profile (you should probably back up the original file, just in case!).Code:sed 's@PATH *=[^/]*@&/var/lib/install/usr/bin:@' /etc/profile > /tmp/profile.new
Once you move it, test it by typing "source /etc/profile" into XTerm. If an error occurs, restore your backup and then retrying the flite command. Otherwise, retry the flite command to see if it works now. If not, PM me and I'll work you through it, or you can mail your Nokia 770 with a SASE to:
Gimmy Ur. Tabblit
1250 NokiaStealer St.
Bermuda Triangle, NW 12345
(Just kidding, please do not mail your Nokia 770.)
If what I've said confuses you, you might not want to try it, and even if you do try it, do not hold me responsible for any strange gooey substance that may ooze from your Nokia 770's USB port.
I'll look into possibly modifying the PATH environment variable (in Maemo Mapper, not in the installer) to automatically include this path, or I'll just bite the bullet and hardcode the entire path (gulp), or maybe I can provide it as yet another config option in the Settings dialog (grumble... it grows beyond my desires...). Or, my favorite option might be to just change the system() call to just try both flite and /var/lib/install/usr/bin/flite.
