I am attempting to install CQRLOG on a PC running Ubuntu MATE 16.04. It all goes well till the final step, where it says that a media change is required. Specific text is as follows:

"Need to get 0 B/32.6 MB of archives.
After this operation, 203 MB of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n] Y
Media change: please insert the disc labeled
'Ubuntu-MATE 16.04.2 LTS _Xenial Xerus_ - Release i386 (20170215)'
in the drive '/cdrom/' and press [Enter]"

I am running CRQLOG 2.0.5 on Ubuntu 16.04. Everything is working fine.

But sometimes CQRLOG does not calculate distance/bearing. The fields are empty. I have not found a "pattern" yet but it's for certain stations and maybe for very long distance. Just noticed it for V73NS. Is this a known issue?

I installed CQRLOG from the library available in the Synaptic package manager that comes with Ubuntu MATE. It installed OK, but when I attempt to run it, I get an error message saying "Error during connection to database: Server Connect failed", then a second dialogue box that says:

"* Database Problem
MySQL could not be started. Please check to see if the MySQL server is installed properly"

Hi
Just made first release (and pull request) of alternative remote fldigi.
It uses XmlRpc with communication between fldigi and cqrlog.

Biggest differences are:
1) you can see worked_before/DXCC status and QRZ/HamQth data like in normal cqrlogging
2) you can run fldigi on different computer than cqrlog (both must be networked)

Hi there,

in my installation, xplanet couldn't find the directional map (bck.png) which I figured out, while I was looking for a different background, than the dark stars.

However, so far, I didn't found a way for xplanet to change the background through the config file, but simply by setting up a symbolic link, the directional map background is working:
