Can anyone suggest some Linux software (well, Debian to be exact!) for use
with a geko 201? Initially I want to be able to create waypoints on a
background map & load them onto the gps. I've just been having a look at
GPSMan ( http://www.ncc.up.pt/gpsman/ )but it seems to be horrendously
complicated just to import a map. Perhaps I'm just getting ancient...
It would be nice to be able to download data from the gps & superimpose it
on the map again after a trip.
I intend to use maps saved from the mario system
( http://mario.lancashire.gov.uk/ ). These are almost 1000 pixels square &
I can save them in any raster format, I suppose, since they won't be
leaving the pc. Certainly jpg or gif.
Of course, the Garmin software isn't of much use on Linux. :-(
