[Xastir] Tigermap problems at the server?

Fri Aug 20 21:44:04 EDT 2004

Yes agree
Built-in map types:
      gnis   USGS GNIS Datapoints
       map   APRSdos Maps
       map   WinAPRS/MacAPRS/X-APRS Maps
       pdb   PocketAPRS Maps

Support for these additional map types has been compiled in: 
       geo   Image Map (ImageMagick library, many formats allowed)
       geo   URL (Internet maps via wget)
       shp   ESRI Shapefile Maps (Shapelib library)
       tif   USGS DRG Geotiff Topographic Maps (libgeotiff/libproj)
       xpm   X Pixmap Maps (XPM library)
Couldn't download the Tigermap image
