 That's a lot of questions but it has been a  frustrating exercise so far when I compare it with loading/using my Fugawi  navigation on other XP laptop.

   Me too. I think there are a several eeepc  users who want to adapt    charts for their boating, more coming as it becomes known. Presently I use a    Garmin Etrex Mariner and would like a crossover program to use charts with    real time tracking.

                   I am new to      Linux via the micro laptop from ASUS (eeePC).  I have used 
the NOAA      free-download BSB & ENC charts with my Fugawi Windows-based      
navigation software for 4 years.  I am trying to duplicate this on      the 
Linux (Xandros) factory pre-install on the eeePC which would      
significantly reduce my power requirements on my sail boat.

I am      in the Toronto Canada area and would appreciate linking up with a 
fellow      boater willing to work on this and to document it for the growing 
number      of eeePC users.

I am trying to get my eeePC to fully      recognize/receive the GPS sentences 
from my GPS-usb receiver made by      Holux (G-613) for which Holux provides 
a Linux download      driver.
