Issue running maps

[adieyal]

This issue might be completely unrelated to virtualization but I wanted to rule it out. Big Sur works perfectly, except that Maps and Find My don't show any maps (see screenshot)

Is there any chance that it could be related to the container?

OS related issued, please help us identify the issue by posting the output of this

There are no GPS devices that I know of that the container could access to locate itself other than IP based and neighboring wifi networks.

Have you tried zooming out? Might not work unfortunately

[adieyal]

The problem isn't the GPS, just that the maps aren't displaying. It could be a million things, just wanted to rule out the container being the cause.

Android apparently has is in their hard fork of QEMU https://android.googlesource.com/platform/sdk/+/ics-mr0/emulator/gps/gps_qemu.c

There may be an App Store app that lets you fake the location or some other HID

Does google maps work?

A simple solution for local setups would be a dongle passed thru to the container:

There may be some emulator or Realtek style testing dummy GPS card.

I personally haven't opened maps ever in the container, so I can't rule out host issues on your side.

However this is interesting, perhaps there is a kext available

likely related to 3d/gpu hardware acceleration: https://communities.vmware.com/t5/VMware-Fusion-Discussions/Translucent-displays-sluggish-Maps-is-dark/td-p/2832898

@sickcodes Do you know the current 3d capabilities of docker-osx? Is Maps working for anybody or any configuration at all?

Same issue here.

Maps and Find My don't show any maps. Tried to use github.com/seemoo-lab/openhaystack. Big Sur is needed. This app comes with an native app, which also has apple maps included. Here, too, the map is gray.

• apple maps isn't working
• openhaystack (using apple maps also) doesn't work.
• google maps on safari is working fine.

maybe @prusswan is right and it has to do something with the hw acc.

System info:

• Ubuntu 23.10 x86_64
• Docker version 25.0.3, build 4debf41
• QEMU emulator version 8.0.4

but thx for this great project @sickcodes
