Installation package for Maemo 5 on the Nokia N900

ModRana is available from the Extras-devel repository, in the Location & Navigation section.

  • If you want to install from the command line, type this as root:
    apt-get install modrana
    
  • modRana will be installed to /opt/modrana, this folder also includes the configuration files
  • tiles are stored in /home/user/MyDocs/.modRana_tiles/ (a hidden folder)

Installation package for SHR on the Neo FreeRunner

http://www.modrana.org/data/modrana_0.16-4_all.ipk

a walkthrought for intalation on QTMoko

  • on SHR unstable the packages python-netclient and python-misc need to be installed
  • in default configuration, tiles are stored in /usr/share/modrana/cache/images, because the on device space is limited, it is advised to store the tiles on the memory card, the path can be modified in user_config.conf in the modRana main folder
  • modRana stores tiles in the same way as TangoGPS, a single tile folder can be shared
  • map layers can be configured in map_config.conf in the main modRana folder
  • Maps folder sharing configuration example:
    • our TangoGPS tiles are stored in /home/root/Maps, f.e. a OpenStreetMap layer in /home/root/Maps/OSM
    • we set tile_folder in user_config.conf to /home/root/Maps
    • then we set the !openStreetMap layer prefix OSM (/home/root/Maps/OSM -> OSM)
    • modRana will then use for OpenStreetMap layer tiles this path: /home/root/Maps + OSM -> /home/root/Maps/OSM
