Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Zroadmap From Opie Feed Gives Error

« on: November 12, 2005, 01:55:23 am »

Hmm... deja-vu, i just thought we had discussed that more than once before... anyway, gpsd changed it's IPC interface and the other programs are a bit slow with catching up. Until they did that, the new gpsd won't work with 'em. You may pester the respective developers if you think this will improve the speed...

Hmmm. I never experienced an incompatibility on my desktop. Do you know what version causes the problem? (I use 2.28--Debian unstable.)

Software / Zroadmap + Flite. Help!

« on: November 12, 2005, 01:50:24 am »

Does anyone have zRoadmap working with flite?

From your description, it looks like roadmap does not detect the end of flite: roadmap
will not launch flite more than once at a given time (only one program can access the sound card at a given time).

I have had several problems making RoadMap work fine with flite on BSD: signal management not working. This might be similar.

This was solved in 1.0, but there might be a problem with how zroadmap was built.

BTW, there are a two of us who would like to revive zroadmap in the sense that we want zroadmap, latest version of roadmap source, to become available on the roadmap site (it seems the zroadmap (i.e. zaurus port of roadmap) web site is gone.

We need a Zaurus user to volunteer testing the build. Any volunteer? Please email to pascal.martin@iname.com

Thanks.

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Xroadmap

« on: October 09, 2005, 12:19:07 am »

The documentation that comes with the latest RoadMap release has been improved, in the sense that it tries to explain what files are used by RoadMap and where. Also some files that were missing in the distribution have been added.

Do not hesitate to ask questions on roadmap@saignon.net, the "official" RoadMap email list. Feedback is welcome.

Thanks.

Pascal.

Have you found and read this thread ?

No such luck, it wants to run, but setup is not will documented so it may take some time figure it out.

I am having trouble with my X86 attempts also. It seems to expect files stored in specific places. But the locations are not clear to me, yet.

Sharp ROMs / Zroadmap

« on: March 27, 2005, 11:53:10 pm »

The problem is that there were (?) two developers: I created RoadMap (for the iPAQ, using GTK) and Laroslav ported it to the Zaurus (QT/QPE). It seems Laroslav did not maintain zroadmap (the QPE version) after a while. The zroadmap sources are actually the same as the roadmap source, since I kept merging. I believe the only part that may not work out of the box will be the make files.

But I have no Zaurus myself, and I have no development environment either. The ARM binaries on the RoadMap web site are for the iPAQ/Familiar distribution only and is the GTK version. I did build a PdaXrom version for one user: despite being a GTK version too, there are library incompatibilities with Familiar..

Basically, if anyone is interested in building the latest RoadMap for Zaurus (1.0.9 so far), please do. I will certainly provide my support, help and I will merge the proposed changes.

The (almost) latest sources can be obtained from RoadMap web site download page, the very latest from the CVS repository on SourceForge (project: roadmap).

Please note that the format of usdir.rdm has changed in 1.0.8 (the county maps are the same).

Btw, any version beyond 1.0.2 won't work with sharp rom. Is the developer steering away from sharp rom forever? Are those new releases for OZ (or other roms) only?
