I tried the debian package after installing apt-get for dsl, but I did not get it to work.
I tried the tarball but I'm getting errors on installation.
Could it be a dependency problem?
Here is what the application needs (I'm a newbie and not sure what dsl has) from http://www.gpsdrive.cc/readme.shtml:
"To compile gpsdrive you need to development packages of:
GTK-+2.x (better >=2.2.x)
pango
atk
pcre
xdevel (X11 development)
gettext
libcrypt
glibc
also the compiler gcc >=3.x
make
To compile from the tarball:
Extract it with "tar -xvzf gpsdrive*tar.gz"
cd gpsdrive
./configure
make
If you don't need the support of the GARMIN protocol (you are using
only NMEA protocol) you should configure GpsDrive with:
./configure --disable-garmin
You can also add --enable-auto-optimization for optimized compiler flags.
As root you should do a
make install
to install the program, the gpsd daemon and the language files.
After compiling and installing (install is needed for localisation)
read the manpage of gpsdrive or start the program if you are to lazy
to read manuals. ;-)
You can also download the RPM file and install it:
rpm -Uvh gpsdrive*.rpm"
