Hello,<BR>
<BR>
I am relatively new to Quantum GIS, and run Metis under Ubuntu Hardy (amd-64).<BR>
<BR>
Tried to download data from an Etrex GPS and get an error "The layer is not a valid layer and cannot be added to the map". The settings I used are shown in the attached screen shot.<BR>
<BR>
However I reckon I've performed this operation successfully before under an earlier Quantum version.<BR>
<BR>
This seems to be a problem under OSX (<A HREF="http://forum.qgis.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1460)">http://forum.qgis.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1460)</A> but I couldn't find any reports for other platforms.<BR>
<BR>
Any advice would be appreciated.<BR>
<BR>
Cheers<BR>
Tony<BR>
