I have Garmins, with software from Garmin, Maptech, Topo.com, and
Delorme -- and I have <curse, snarl, screech> a machine I can run XP
on just for that.
Two or three years ago, I worked long and hard, with this list and
two or three others including CrossoverOffice, to manage under linux.
I managed to get two of the four suites of software to run under
Fedora -- but never did get any of them to talk to any of my Garmins.
There *are* also several linux-native apps -- if you're Alpha Plus
Technoid enough to use them. Last time I tried, it took not only a lot
more linux-savvy than I've got, but something like a graduate degree
in cartography besides.
Good luck! And please report in exhaustive detail. Pretty please.
My interest in this project is pretty casual and if it requires Wine or
Windows software I wont bother. This computer will boot Windows XP but
hasn't done so in a long while and I have never tried it with the GPS.
I did find some GPS related applications listed in Yumex and installed
whatever looked appropriate but I am still trying to find what I can do
with them if anything.
