I brought it up on the XCSoar forum, but the consensus was that the old
3850 just didn't have the processing power.
Which is bull****.
Agreed, I've never had an problem running any previous versions of xcsoar,
and the latest version 6.6.1 is just fine too.
I've never had it crash either, ( usage ~ 100 hrs a season since it went
open source ), but I always make sure I use the 'last stable' version not
the betas.
The menus, zooming, in fact all operations work fine and quickly for me,
although I don't have the topology or overlay maps turned on, I do have the
flarm radar turned on.
I think xcsoar is by far the best soaring software money can buy.
A big thanks to Max and the team for keeping XCsoar going for those of us
with older hardware, I often don't think they get the recognition they
deserve.
