Garmin Communicator Plugin for Linux

Postby zou » Tue Mar 20, 2012 1:56 pm

Hi,

I am a recent french pclos gnome user. Before installing pclos, I tried many others distro (ubuntu, fedora, mint, debian) but none wanted to work on my machine except pc linux os. An I am very glad with it !

I tried also differents desktop environment : kde, xfce and the last one gnome which is my prefered.

But, no one is perfect and I confess that I have still windows on my machine. But this is not completely my fault.
Indeed, I am a runner and I use a special watch with a gps : garmin forerunner 305. At the moment, I can only upload the data of my forerunner when I am on windows using garmin communicator plugin.

But, I did some searches on the net and found that someone developed this plugin for linux : http://www.andreas-diesner.de/garminplugin/doku.php.

It is possible to install it on ubuntu, debian, fedora, opensuse and arch linux http://www.andreas-diesner.de/garminplugin/doku.php. But not yet on pclos !

If anyone could do this for me, it will be very great and I will say "au revoir" to windows forever ! You can have the source code here http://www.andreas-diesner.de/garminplugin/doku.php?id=source

Thanks in advance,

Zou

Welcome

Not to change the subject, but has anyone with a gps tried using gpsbabel-gui?
Just curious.

No I cannot do that on http://www.pclinuxos.com/forum/ because under Software section I can see only

- Packages Processed
- Broken Packages
- Software Announcements

I cannot see where to post my request.

Thank you very much but as I read the rules, I know why now I cannot access this part of the forum : I have to post 10 threads before accessing it !
