EDIT 20070502 - working on Angstrom in chroot without patching kernel, package coming sometime.
--- http://www.tomtom.com/page.php?Page=gpl my wife bought me a TomTom GO 300, and I discovered that it runs linux when I, naturally, googled to see what hacks had been done. I was quite surprised to find it ran linux. interestingly, TT originally used 2.4.18 but now 2.6.10. they provide useful downloads and all the patches for the kernel, so those with a particular predilection for low-level hackery might find that page interesting or useful.... especially if it'd be possible to use TT's bluetooth hands-free system. all we need now is to hack a GPS receiver into our Zauruses along with wifi and bluetooth, and we've got it made! oh yeah, there's an OpenTom project too: http://www.opentom.org/index.php/Main_Page |

QUOTE(loc4me @ Jan 5 2006, 04:19 AM) Also what about the bluetooth connection? Can a link be established over that to the the BT connection, on the 300 at least, is one-way - outbound from the TT over a mobile phone. opentom *can* allow bluetooth rfcomm to get NMEA data from the GPS - I asked specifically, and of course, you just have to write your own trivial rfcomm listener and "connect" it to the GPS receiver's tty. |
