If you are technoid enough to run it (as Gene is, and I'm not), roadnav is a good app; I've been trying for ten years to find either an app that I can, or an emulator that can run Delorme, Garmin, and Maptech software *and* make them talk to a GPS. I tried long and hard a couple years back with CrossOverOffice (CXO); and got to where it would launch and run Garmin, Maptech, and Topo.com (but not Delorme) -- and couldn't enable any of them to talk to any of my GPSs. Maybe you'd have better luck now. One of the machines on my desk has a second hard drive that I can boot to XP when I want to bad enough; I'm in process of looking for a sturdy laptop with XP still on it for the car. The list for CXO is carried on Gmane; the one for roadnav (which is quite helpful, and not too busy) has its subscription site at : > > Roadnav-users mailing list > > Roadnav-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/roadnav-users Good luck! And let us (especially me) know how you do. -- Beartooth Staffwright, Not Quite Clueless Power User C5; D4; F8; P3; U7.10; Alpine 1.0, Pan 0.132; Privoxy 3 Remember I know little (precious little!) of where up is. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
