Followups set, hesitantly, to gmane.linux.redhat.fedora.general I thought I had posted this to both these groups, but my newsreader doesn't show it in either. I have three Garmin GPSs (an Etrex Vista and two Rino 120s), which I want to use under Fedora 11 Linux with four PCs, and two IBM- reconditioned Thinkpads, T30 & T42. Garmin software suites (Metroguide USA and Topo US 2008)

I have a Garmin 78s marine GPS receiver and it stores tracks in GPX format. This is an XML encoded set of points giving longitude, latitude, time and sea depth. Garmin support viewing this via their Garmin Express product, but there only seem to be Windows and Mac versions. I've emailed them and await a reply. In the mean time, does anyone know of any Linux products that will emable me to

Hello, I tried to install Mapsource 6 in Wine (20050211.2) on MDK LE2005 but it didn't install... The same with GIDroute which installed but didn't want to be launched. I will give it a try on MDV 2006 but I don't expect a miracle. And the pseudo map applications for Linux are not really what we can consider as useful and easy to handle with...

On the various technical issues raised here (OK, we posted the rules, we won't discuss the legality anymore) I think there is only one main obstacle to using FRS radios for extensions on *. They are simplex (push-to-talk, release-to-listen). The protocol for dealing with voice-activated-switching (VOX) has been used in ham and public safety simplex autopatches but it's really tricky

Hi, I am routinely compiling a package and since I have moved to R 2.10.0, it troncates some section texts in the doc: With the following section in the rd file: \details{ The function calls gpsbabel via the system.

Hello, everyone - I have an old Windows app - a ship navigation program - that needs to see GPS input on a serial port (it was written in the pre-USB days.) My laptop, however, has no serial ports - but this same program, when run on a friend's Windows box, can read the GPS info from the USB-connected GPS via the "USB-Serial Driver". This is one of the frustrating bits of this

Good evening! I'm trying to install "Garmin POI Loader v2.3.2" from <http://www.garmin.com/support/download_details.jsp?id=927> with Wine 0.9.25. on a Gentoo Linux x86 system. The installation always fails :/ After running the installer, I get the following error message: ? ? ? ? Error Number: 0x80040702 ? ? ? ?

Last time I tried, a few years back, Wine was not yet up to handling Garmin's proprietary topo map software. It would install, and sometimes even work, so long as I didn't try to connect a GPS to it. (The ones I have are all also Garmins -- old ones wanting a serial port.) I made a huge effort, for most of a year, with a lot of help from high-powered Alpha Plus Technoids on several

Dear List, I need some help in coming up with a function that will take two data sets, determine if a value is missing in one, find a value in the second that was taken at about the same time, and substitute the second value in for where the first should have been. My problem is from a fish tracking study. We put acoustic tags in fish and track them for several days. Location data is supposed

I'm struggling with package XML to parse a Garmin file (named *.tcx). I wonder if it's form is incomplete, but appreciably reluctant to paste even a shortened version. The output below shows I can get nodes, but an attempt at value of a single node comes up empty (even though there is data there. One question: Has anybody succeeded parsing Garmin .tcx (xml) files? Thanks! Michael

As most of you know, I've been trying to make GPSs and topo maps usable under Fedora Core 4 linux, using CrossoverOfficePro (CXO) 5.0.1. I've belabored nine or ten specialized lists for six or eight weeks, parcelling out pieces of the problem wherever I hoped they might arouse interest and knowledge. I've gotten invaluable help and encouragement from all of them, on the lists

Back in 2000 I went on a mission to get rid of windows completely from the house. I succeeded in 2007... however, the company I worked for is using the Apple iPhone for their phones... so now I'm right back in the mess with windows. I was just curious what would it take to get the following working flawlessly in wine. (besides a miracle.) 1. iTunes (with USB support for updating the

With snarls and curses and gnashing of teeth, I still keep one laptop and one dual-bootable PC hard drive with XPProSP2 installed. (Everything else is Fedora 10.) I do so purely for one class of apps, proprietary map software. Wine can now install and run at least one, and the most important, of the four suites of such apps that I have. (That one is Garmin MapSource, including Topo US

It keeps butting in when I try to install map software from Garmin under Wine. I'm not nearly competent not willing to apply the remedy it suggests. How do I get to someplace where I can disable it, or at least set it to permissive?

From a complete Wine newbie: I use Wine to run apps related with GPS receivers. I have upgraded from 0.9.33 which came with Mandriva 2007.1 Spring to 0.9.46 from WineHQ. Net result, the Garmin Mapsource app now loads and runs perfectly, which it did not do before. But GPSMapEdit, which worked before, no longer does. Question: is it possible to have to versions of Wine installed, and use one

Can anyone please hazard a guess at an estimate for a poor old squirrel hunter with a Very Very Dumb Question? Is wine likely to be able to install and run any of the proprietary GPS-interfacing topo map programs (DeLorme, Garmin, Mapquest, et al.) at any roughly predictable future date? The season opens in three weeks, my GPS (Garmin's etrex vista) is full -- and it still contains road maps

I'm using the latest version of Wine with my ubuntu 9.04 system and trying to install the Garmin Communicator Plugin for firefox First, I installed firefox via wine then with that wine'd version of FF, tried to install the plugin. I get this far. [Image: http://czaralex.com/pichost/images/bfi1249309521w.png ] This shot only shows the box in question. You're seeing part of my

Hi, I'm trying to install version 4.0 from the CD that came with my GPS unit. I'm able to run Setup.exe and get to the initial startup menu. The links to visit the Garmin website and exit the installation work fine but when I click the one to install the app I get the hourglass cursor for a fraction of a second, like it's starting to do something, but nothing happens. This is my first

For years, I could install, and sometimes run, legacy private map software under Wine. But in order to connect it with my GPSs, I had to keep a separate hard drive with XP, and do that there. Then came a brief time when I could also actually make my Garmin GPSs talk with the software under Wine. I transferred all my data to it, and gleefully wiped XP off my machine. Then the connecting
