If you don't need the map you can try Predict. It's a text based tracking program -

While I have not tried the DOS version listed on the web page the Linux version works very well on my Linux based Pocket PC.

Greetings from Patrick, N2OEQ
I need advice on tracking satellites with a handheld PC ( not pocket PC )
I recently recieved a NEC mobilepro 750c HPC with a MIPS R4000 processor. I downloaded a DOS emulation program and tried running the DOS STSPLUS program. The map took 25 minutes to draw so this is impractical.
Any ideas or experience would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions, pat
