@Robert: APM Planner 2 will create tlogs on successful connection. We will be adding tlog browsing soon.

After a bit of messing around, I got it compiled under Linux and played around with it for a while. My first impressions are that it would be usable for most situations, with the key exception being viewing log data. I would probably take my win 7 laptop for recording telemetry logs but it would be nice to be able to view that data, and the flash logs, on my Linux desktop at home which has a much larger screen.

While I could open and view the logs I wasn't able to zoom in the way I can on windows (MP v<2).
