Re: OpenCPN Version 5.1.708 RC2 Test
Hi
I have a Dell xps13 with core I5 and intel HD graphics 520 and this morning I upgraded this to LinuxMint 20. I cant get opencpn to work, the chart is only filling lower left corner of the availble space in the opencpn frame. Using the Beta ppa to install 5.1.708.
Driver manager tells me I dont need any additional drivers.
Thanks
Johan

Reverted back to Linuxmint 19.3 (bionic)
Beta from cloudsmith bionic-gtk3_5.1.708 gives same problem.
Bionic_5.1.708 Works.

Known problem with gtk3, when using Screen Scaling > 100%.
Thanks for the report.

Matzilla, et al...
Found and corrected a fault on retrying lost USB connections in 5.1.708.
You might like to try this one:
https://dl.cloudsmith.io/public/davi...4a7c_setup.exe
Please check basic GPS positioning on re-connect, as well as Dashboard timeouts, if able.
Thanks
Dave

Re: OpenCPN Version 5.1.708 RC2 Test
@Hakan...
You might like to review Dashboard data watchdog function on 5.1.711.
I find that if I stop the NMEA data (unplug the cable), then this happens:
1. On O5, the GPS Compass instrument goes completely blank. OK
2. On 5.1.711, the GPS Compass instrument freezes showing the last value. NOT OK.
This probably relates to COG. Maybe SOG, too, but hard to test if not moving.
May be able to reproduce with VDR, as well.
Thanks
Dave

Dave..
Very good. I'll test in the boat tomorrow. (Where I have USB to withdraw.)
It may be I've seen this effect in the boat last month without notice the O connection. Thanks to Schnapsy and Matzilla for the catch and report.

Hi Dave,
Thanks, I installed and tested as before. Issue still exists.
Method.
NMEA from Multiplexor and Nanobaro arduino connected to USB
- Data on dashboard ok.
- NMEA data in monitor ok
- Remove USB, wait for ~ 10sec till al instruments offline/no data
- Reconnect and wait for 60 seconds.
- No data in on NMEA monitor, Instruments do not restart on Dashboard. Checked device in device manager - present on correct ports
- To start instrumentation, had to open Connections -> Uncheck the 2 x NMEA com ports and apply then re-check and apply.
- Data now flowing as normal.

Matzilla...
I found another case, using a different USB adapter, that fails to re-connect.
Corrected code, building now. Will have a sample for you to test momentarily.
Thanks
Dave
