[Xastir] FW: xfontsel

[Joseph LaFerla]

HI Curt

Sorry, I forgot to add that the terminal window in which I started xastir displays a large number of the following

convert_from_xastir_coordinates:X out-of-range (too low):4263101696
convert_from_xastir_coordinates:Y out-of-range (too low):4258554496
convert_from_xastir_coordinates:X out-of-range (too high):161465600
convert_from_xastir_coordinates:Y out-of-range (too high):101212800
convert_from_xastir_coordinates:X out-of-range (too low):4263101696
convert_from_xastir_coordinates:Y out-of-range (too low):4258554496
convert_from_xastir_coordinates:X out-of-range (too high):161465600

I doublechecked the coordinates for my station and they are correct.  Stations are still coming in but the map is not displayed

Am I leaving something out?

-or-

If you're just getting started and haven't done a lot of Xastir config'ing yet... Delete your ~/.xastir directory, then re-start Xastir. It will rebuild that directory with the correct paths for your new install.

You could also rename .xastir to .xastir-save or similar and restart Xastir, then copy bits and pieces from your .xastir-save/* files into your .xastir/* directory as needed.
