XASTIR under Ubunto on the ASUS Eee PC
 

Background
There do not appear to be many APRS programs to choose from in the Ubuntu sources. XASTIR does not really meet my needs so an in depth appraisal will be a while coming.

Initial findings

  • Works once you've turned off all appearance enhancements. Recompile fixes this.
  • No direct soundcard support - needs TNC or TCP/IP link to a Windows machine running AGWPE

  • Too much of a good thing is wonderful.
