Carcinoma:

doesn't we have opkg as a lightweigt packed manager?
isn't ligtweigt mostly the same as memory efficient and fast?
why should we develop a new, instead of optimizing the
opkg one? what did you think to do better than the opkg people?
what are the goals that seperates npkg from opkg?

Carcinoma:

- Does it work with Garmin maps?

- Just a side note, the script won't work in a good portion of the US

- Can a navit binary map be converted for Locations (codenamed Splinter)?

'''Route>Destination bug, Navit exit'''

In ~/.profile add

export LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8

'''Refresh'''
Hi all,
I belive that **most** of this page is outdated.

Could I suggest to add http://download.navit-project.org/navit/openmoko/svn/ as repository for navit?

Carcinoma: does the packages have all needed depencies (like speech-dispatcher)? And where are the Languages?

[User:alphac] The best way to use navit on openmoko in europe is to buy Marco Polo Grosser Reiseplaner 2007/2008 maps and install them into the sd card, navit is able to read them but it is almost impossible to set a correct destination (slow and bugged interface)

'''Om2009'''

Hi, on Om2009t3, none of the display types I tried, worked. Also, using an OSM "binfile" map didn't work. Navit always exited with "no display" and "invalid maptype" or similar. Since I installed everything today, it can't be the software. Please, can someone in the know update this page to reflect the current state of affairs?

Carcinoma: /* Copy the map to the NEO */

{{Application|Navit}}

As described on the [http://navit.sourceforge.net/ Navit home page],

"Navit is a car navigation system with routing engine.

Its modular design is capable of using vector maps of various formats for routing and rendering of the displayed map. It's even possible to use multiple maps at a time.

The GTK+ or SDL user interfaces are designed to work well with touch screen displays. Points of Interest of various formats are displayed on the map.

The current vehicle position is either read from gpsd or directly from NMEA GPS sensors."

Some people say Navit is also a good choice for pedestrian and bicycle navigation.

[[Image:Screenshot-3.png|thumb|Navit-0.0.4+cvs]]

== Acknowledgment ==

Thanks to [[User:Alessandro | Alessandro]], stefan_schmidt, cp15 and all Navit developers I have done a small ("not really working") preview of Navit on Neo1973 at [http://www.telemobilityforum.com/eng/ Telemobility Forum 2007]. Thanks to [http://gfoss.it GFoss] guys to invite me.
''[[User:Tyrael | Tyrael]]''

==Setting up Navit==

===Install Navit===
I got navit set up and configured to the point where it follows me on the map. It doesn't have street names or any other information, just the map and the cursor showing the location and direction. Here's what I did:
* Install navit ipkg on NEO (because of a bug in opkg it's necessary to wget then install, instead of pointing opkg at the URL):
<pre>wget http://www.acoveo.org/navit_0.1.0+svnrev1255-r0_armv4t.ipk
opkg install --force-depends navit_0.1.0+svnrev1255-r0_armv4t.ipk</pre>
This package includes a patch to navit which improves map panning speeds.
* Or roll your own from svn using the toolchain (having checked out trunk in the navit directory, and assuming you have written navit_control):
<pre>. /usr/local/openmoko/arm/setup-env
om-conf navit --disable-samplemap
om-make-ipkg navit navit_control</pre>
You may want to apply the map panning patch from acoveo: http://www.acoveo.org/openmoko/font_scaling_patch.diff

===Set up the maps you want===

====The Easy Way====
Use [http://maps.navit-project.org/download/ Navit pre-processed OSM maps]. Navigate to the region you want, and click select to select it, select the region you want, then click download

If you just want the entire planet (as of this writing, ~1.6 GB), it's [http://maps.navit-project.org/planet.bin here].

[http://downloads.cloudmade.com/ CloudMade] also has up-to-date maps from OpenStreetMap by country (by state in the US).

====From the command line====
** Openstreetmap - follow directions at http://wiki.navit-project.org/index.php/OpenStreetMaps
*** There are some up-to-date maps already prepared, e.g.:

<pre>wget -O germany.bin http://maps.navit-project.org/api/map/?bbox=5.185546875,46.845703125,15.46875,55.634765625</pre>

** Here's an example of what I did to get the maps for the area around Seattle, Wa where I live:
*** figured out map coordinates using http://informationfreeway.org/?lat=47.520270037501454&lon=-122.20130713167327&zoom=9&layers=B000F000
*** Downloaded 4 regions from openstreetmaps ([[Navit#Script_to_download_OSM_maps|see below]] for a script to do this for you automatically for largish areas)

<pre>wget -O map1.osm http://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.5/map?bbox=-122.2,47.5,-122,47.7
wget -O map2.osm http://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.5/map?bbox=-122.4,47.5,-122.2,47.7
wget -O map3.osm http://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.5/map?bbox=-122.4,47.3,-122.2,47.5
wget -O map4.osm http://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.5/map?bbox=-122.2,47.3,-122,47.5</pre>

*** Made a navit binary map file using the osm2navit binary that comes with the navit package on my linux box (it is also installing to the target from the .ipk)

<pre>cat *.osm | osm2navit --dedupe-ways mymap.bin</pre>

===Copy the map to the NEO===
scp mymap.bin root@neo:/home/root/card/map
*** Change the navit.xml file on the NEO to use the new map

<pre>cp /usr/share/navit/navit.xml ~/.navit/navit.xml
vi ~/.navit/navit.xml
<map type="binfile" enabled="yes" data="/home/root/card/map/mymap.bin" /></pre>

* Run navit
** Start gllin (for GTA01)
** Start gpsd ( gpsd /tmp/nmeaNP )
** Start navit

* The version of osm2navit with which you build the maps should match the version of navit you have. If in doubt, build the maps on the Openmoko.

===Something about the Internal GUI===
Navit supports a "always center on vehicle" option.

To activate this add
follow="3"
to the vehicle tag in navit.xml. The "3" causes to give the gui time to do something between the repaints (drag the map or browse the menu). When its set to "1" navit does nothing more than repainting the map continuously.

== News ==

=== Street names ===
They are now displayed on Openmoko using the CVS version of Navit (20071217).

=== Point selection by pen ===
Easier using the CVS version (20071217).

=== Route > Destination ===
The Route > Destination menu item crashes the software (20071217 and 0.04, but fixed in 0.1.0+svnrev1255).

A workaround is to set the LANG variable before calling navit. For example:

LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 navit

Note that a short syntax (e.g. LANG=fr) would not work.

If you put an "export LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8" into your /etc/.profile file, it will automatically set this environment variable every time you boot up. This way, you can launch Navit from the Icon in Illume.

http://trac.navit-project.org/ticket/51

=== Speech ===
Navit can speak if you install eSpeak + speech-dispatcher and updates your navit.xml file.

For adventurous people, one way to do this:

* mokoTTS aims to integrate these packages in OM:
http://projects.openmoko.org/projects/mokotts/

install espeak, dotconf, and then speech-dispatcher.
note: running 2008.8 updating from zecke's "testing" repo does not require "dotconf"

* change the speech tag in navit.xml:
<speech type="cmdline" data="spd-say '%s'" />

or "spd-say -l fr '%s'" for using the French voice for example.

=== Maps ===
==== Downloadable Maps ====
Downloadable OSM maps for most areas of the world are available free in Navit format from Cloudmade at [http://downloads.cloudmade.com/ http://downloads.cloudmade.com/]. Simply navigate to the country or region you want and download the <code>.navit.bin.zip</code> version of the map. You'll have to exatract the <code>.bin</code> file from the ZIP archive before using it with Navit.

==== Script to download OSM maps ====
[[User:Wurp|Wurp]] wrote a little python script to download all OSM maps within a lat/long rectangle. Just copy the script to a file called dlOSM.sh, chmod +x it, and run it like
dlOSM.sh <minimum latitude> <maximum latitude> <minimum longitude> <maximum longitude>

It takes a long time for large maps. I could optimize it some by having it try to get a big section at once, then if it fails, break it into smaller pieces and recurse. I'm not sure when/if I'll get around to that...

dlOSM.sh:
<pre>
#!/usr/bin/python

import os
import sys
#import math

def doIt(cmd):
os.system(cmd)

def getOsms(basename, minLat, maxLat, minLon, maxLon):
'''basename - base name of map, maps are named {basename}{count}.osm
minLat - latitude of the west side of the map
maxLat - latitude of the east side of the map
minLon - longitude of the north side of the map
maxLon - longitude of the south side of the map'''

wgetCmdTemplate = 'wget -O %s%s.osm http://api.openstreetmap.org/api/0.5/map?bbox=%s,%s,%s,%s'

currLat = minLat

This all sounds very nice.
At top position is the "Car Driving 'gesture'".

But, while reading the part about the plane, i think, what happened
to the Neo, when i'am on roller coaster?
It will do RF on and off on and off for example?

I think there would be more situations like this.
What is planned to do, when my neo is trying to have fun on roller coaster?
