[amsat-bb] Re: Linux-Sat Tracker

[Vikas N Kumar]

Hello

It depends on the Linux in question.

I use Debian 6.0 (Squeeze) and I use the following in tandem to get a nice
view of satellites:

a) predict and predict-gsat
b) gpredict

I think predict-gsat along with predict running in the background is a
better UI overall and gives a nicer view, but YMMV.
