Bluetooth and bluetooth gps devices work on this system. At least, looking through the threads, people are posting that their devices work. I'm sure that I saw someone say that he'd compiled gpsd . I presume he could then run the navigation software?
As you can see by my sig, I am using, when I have the time, Nokia tablets. The most impressive app that I have found and use is Maemo-Mapper. I'm sure that anyone who has used it would agree with me that it would be a marvellous app to have running on TitchyLinux.
But anyway, I thought we could do with a thread for people to put their experiences with running GPS programs and hardware under TitchyLinux.
Cheers
