By chance would someone already have this development environment already setup for Maemo 4 (or 5) and willing to give a quick crack at it? http://www.qsl.net/n1vtn/petittrack_1.2.0.tar.gz
It would be great to see this in Freemantle-Extras, this is a really nice fast program on the old Z and even better on the N*'s since they have a better speaker for overpass alerts and GPS although that would require a few lines of code. Once you have a working build leave mention towards the bottom of http://wiki.maemo.org/Applications_y...ther_platforms

I appreciate your work and I am sure other sat-spotters and hams will too, I just don't have room for scratchbox in the / of my machine.

I wonder how hard it would be to update the GUI to match the button size(fat finger), background, and close functions.

Whether you get something working or not there should probably be new thread or a project page so more people can get their hands dirty getting this working.

Sorry, other projects have kept me from allocating time to this one. Can you make a post asking someone with scratchbox setup for Maemo4 or Maemo5 with Qtopia/QPE to tackle this? I'll hop in and contribute where applicable from there.

I think it would have been better if you posted it in the developer forum, as it quickly got pushed off the first page in this section. This is also more of a consumer section, vs the producers in Development.

So I may be a bit thick here, where is the dev forum?

I have been using Gpredict with Debian but it is more for desktop systems and is not as feature rich as Petittrack when used portably. Gnome Predict is more suited for running an automated radio for doppler freq and servo aiming the antenna.

The dev forum is here. I've been pretty busy and haven't made any progress with Qtopia/QPE.

PocketSat+ under Garnet VM is the only maemo solution I've found, but updating the keps is a chore.
