All right gang, I need to see if I can do something that I really would like to do. I enjoy geocaching and I currently have an older Garmin GPS that I use. I am looking into purchasing a new GPS though. My question here is...
Are there any GPS units or mapping programs that will work with Linux/Ubuntu? So far, I still have to go take over my wife's Windows box or wait till I get to work to load updated maps or save what I have manually entered. I generally load several cache locations and save them on the units software for upload to the unit.
This is my only area that I still need Windows (Other than work, but that's not my computer).
Any other cachers out there that have worked around this?
