[15:59:19] <Navit> <Sopy> ok so ik this is not the place for it... but I'm working on a remix and I am stuck on the drop having no idea how to make it... I'd be thankful if you guys could send me your favourite songs (any genre) to possibly get inspired :)
[16:17:51] <Navit> <jkoan> hi @ilovekiruna
[23:03:21] <Navit> <Mike_Theevil> good evening everyone hope you are all well and safe. am looking into using navit for a linux based x86 car infotainment system, the device i want to use does not have built in gps so i was wondering if i could use a usb gps dongle and use that with navit ?
[23:11:21] <Navit> <Sopy> if you have linux drivers for the dongle it should work flawlessly
[23:12:01] <Navit> <Mike_Theevil> perfect thank you, dont suppose you know of any that have linux drivers?
[23:13:05] <Navit> <Sopy> Hmm it shouldn't be hard to find one that has linux drivers... just do a quick google search before buying the dongle
[23:13:31] <Navit> <Sopy> :this:
[23:13:44] <Navit> <Mike_Theevil> ❤️
[23:17:16] <Navit> <Sopy> I never used a usb dongle for gps but I did use one for bluetooth and Wifi on a pc like 3years ago and because it wasn't well supported on linux I was having driver crash issues so that's what I mean by do a quick google search, sometimes it may say on the box it is compatible and in reality to be just a poor experience
[23:18:02] <Navit> <Sopy> sorry for all this extra bullcrap but like it's better to have more info than not enough
[23:19:14] <Navit> <Mike_Theevil> oh no bull away its why i asked the experts, it seems like there are a few options, nothing out of the box as far as i can see, i wonder if there are any other options like sending gps data from my android phone to the linux machine
[23:20:17] <Navit> <Mike_Theevil> i have a lenovo touch fablet thing with mint on it at the moment and i wanted to build an infotainment system that could also function as a desktop without going the pi open auto route
[23:21:33] <Navit> <Sopy> https://miloserdov.org/?p=3762
[23:21:43] <Navit> <Mike_Theevil> oo
[23:21:45] <Navit> <Sopy> there are quite a few bluetooth options
[23:21:51] <Navit> <Sopy> or usb
[23:22:42] <Navit> <Mike_Theevil> i was just reading a reddit pot about nmea
[23:22:50] <Navit> <Sopy> idk the specs of the linux machine so I'm not sure if amy of those would work
[23:23:13] <Navit> <Sopy> (thinking about ram)
[23:23:49] <Navit> <Sopy> @Mike_Theevil
[23:25:14] <Navit> <Mike_Theevil> https://www.laptopmag.com/reviews/laptops/lenovo-ideapad-miix-310
[23:25:59] <Navit> <Mike_Theevil> 2gb ddr3
[23:27:11] <Navit> <Sopy> that should be plenty
[23:28:09] <Navit> <Mike_Theevil> nice touchscreen ok ish specs free, figured it would do
[23:28:24] <Navit> <Sopy> yeah it should have a problem
[23:28:51] <Navit> <Mike_Theevil> should or shouldn't?
[23:29:35] <Navit> <Sopy> should have no*
[23:29:42] <Navit> <Sopy> sorry misstapped
[23:29:51] <Navit> <Mike_Theevil> ah i see, sall good i do it all the time xD
[23:29:58] <Navit> <Sopy> It is 1:30 am my time
[23:30:11] <Navit> <Sopy> so like I'm a bit tired
[23:30:59] <Navit> <Mike_Theevil> 11.30pm here
[23:31:01] <Navit> <Sopy> funny enough I got a lenovo ideapad laptop too lol just realized lol
[23:31:26] <Navit> <Mike_Theevil> thanks for the help sopy i was lost in a rabbit hole of option
[23:31:30] <Navit> <Mike_Theevil> options
[23:31:53] <Navit> <Sopy> Sometimes simple google searches can give best results
[23:32:07] <Navit> <Sopy> in like
[23:32:17] <Navit> <Sopy> best results/time spent
[23:32:53] <Navit> <Sopy> if you dig too deep you'll always find something better but that'd require more tehnical knowledge and would be a pain to pull off
[23:36:19] <Navit> <Mike_Theevil> i am fairly new to linux o i was floundering about trying to work out what to do, i was going to try and get a modified rasbian android auto image working but that seemed like it lacked functionality, i need to be able to browse meteorological data and environmental data from an ep32  sensor build aswell so full blown linux or debian seemed like the way to go but i didn't want to give up gps navigation and
[23:36:19] <Navit> so on
[23:36:35] <Navit> <Mike_Theevil> but navit to the rescue
[23:37:40] <Navit> <Sopy> Linux ain't really complicated
[23:37:50] <Navit> <Sopy> aftwr you get the basics in terminal
[23:37:56] <Navit> <Sopy> you're golden
[23:38:19] <Navit> <Sopy> if you're used to windows there are distros that have similar ui
[23:38:37] <Navit> <Sopy> to make you feel even more "home"
[23:39:13] <Navit> <Mike_Theevil> i use puppy and mint so far but this is my first "development" attempt
[23:44:54] <Navit> <Mike_Theevil> well iam off to bed but thankyou so much @Sopy have a good one
[23:45:37] <Navit> <Sopy> Thanks same to you
