similar to: Problems installing MapSource

I am new to Linux, Ubuntu, WIne etc but despite all that I am operating in Ubuntu 8.10, with MapSource 6.13.6 installed via Wine 1.0.1. I know there is an issue in getting MapSource to recognize the GPS while connected via USB but I am unable to understand the steps provided to solve this issue. I've been advised to enter "sudo modprobe garmin_gps" in terminal and to check the

I have Garmin Mapsource v8 working 100% with Wine and Linux kernel 2.6.16. Transfer from/to the GPS connected to a USB Serial converter on /dev/ttyUSB0 works 100% also. But then, I try with kernel 2.6.18 and 2.6.19 and Mapsource doesn't find the GPS. It's not a Linux issue as I can access the GPS with minicom. Device file permisions are OK. Anyone has and idea of what can be happening

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...

Garmin's Mapsource versions prior to 6.16.1 worked almost flawlessly. Now with version 6.16.1 which I upgraded, the main map window doesn't draw the map anymore, just a gray tile. You can still zoom in and zoom out, and even pass your mouse to see that its over some road, but you can't see the map. If you open a track, the trackline shows, but not the map. Also, it now requires at

I have successfully installed Garmin Mapsource using WINE 0.9.59, running on Ubuntu Hardy Heron. Everything appears to work OK until I try to upload selected maps to my GPS unit. At this point, Mapsource shows a list of detected devices; this appears showing two instances of the Garmin GPS unit name, plus 'removable drives' D, E and I. If I select the main Garmin GPS unit entry to upload

I managed to install MapSource 6.12.4 from the CD using Wine 0.9.59 under Ubuntu 8.04. I could configure the unlock code, see maps, etc and connect to my Zumo 550 to download data OK. The problem is running the update package, MapSource 6.13.7. It executes until the opening screen ("Welcome to MapSource Web Update") and then just sits there. There are no buttons or input boxes anywhere

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

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

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

I'm running Garmin MapSource and TopoUS2008 under Wine on Fedora 10 Linux. I want to find the highest point on the highway from my house to my in-laws', a couple hundred miles away. The routing function insists on straight lines some times, and follows roads other times -- regardless how I edit my preferences. How do I make it go the way I want? Once I do get it to do that, and then

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

I found a way to install MS Office 2007 on ubuntu but the thing is i need to run something in the terminal. (Install msxml3.msi file from the Terminal window by issuing msiexec /i msxml3.msi) I downloaded the msxml3.msi file and saved it to my desktop. Now when i just put in "msiexec /i msxml3.msi" it gives me the following error (in the terminal): gogga at gogga-laptop:~$ msiexec /i

It is some time that I using AirMail3 with wine. I have the latest version of Wine but after I configure the Ports from ttyR0 to ttyR7 and running AirMail3 this application is not able to comunicate using the equivalent COM1 .... COM4 ports. I'm not sure if Wine is converting correctly ttyR0 to COM1 and so forth. The result is that for the Hurricane season I can NOT use E-Mail under

Dear help-list members, I am a student at Durham University (UK) conducting a PhD on spatial representation in baboons. Currently, I'm analysing the effect of sampling interval on home range calculations. I have followed the baboons for 234 days in the field, each day is represented by about 1000 waypoints (x,y coordinates) recorded at irregular time intervals. Consecutive waypoints in

Hi all, I'm running the installer from the mounted iso with : wine autorun.exe and I get : err:msi:copy_package_to_temp can't find L"Pro Evolution Soccer 2011.msi" and it brings me back to autorun pop up . Any idea what's going on ? This: wine setup.exe err:msi:copy_package_to_temp can't find L"Pro Evolution Soccer 2011.msi" isn't helping either. thx.

Hello, I have just installed Wine on Ubuntu 7.10 (x86). I have also managed to get hold of and install gecko. However, when I try to install Steam with Code: "wine start SteamInstall.msi" it comes up with several errors in terminal then a popup box saying "Installation ended prematurely because of an error". Can anyone help me please? Notes - I am in the correct

Hi! I have gone a bit further with the installation of Python with Wine. I have downloaded http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?msvcirt and placed it in the .wine/drive_c/windows/system directory.

Hi , I am new to Linux and to wine. Under Suse 7.1 I tried to use wine for the first time. I tried to install the Benelux map ("Garmin mapsource").

I have Garmin's topo map software for the USA, 2008 version, and also a very old MapSource MetroGuide (ca. 1998) installed under wine. All is well -- except the biggest thing. Neither program can detect the etrex vista nor the rino 120, using Garmin's cables. The topo couldn't before I added the road maps,so that's not the trouble. Both, on the other (<shudder>
