Freerunner, Om2008.8: Navit & GPS

[Bernhard Schauer]

I currently use a self "created" map (downloaded after selecting a region)
where Munich is also included. Thus I modified navit.xml to point to the
downloaded .bin file instead of the sample one.

I'll check
<vehicle name="Meins" enabled="yes" active="1" follow="1" refresh="1"
source="gpsd://localhost" color="#0000ff"/>

I haven't changed that line - I've seen that enabled is yes but not looked
at the rest of the line, so I'll check that! Thanks!
