followed instructions as follows

Don't bother for libgps16
There is no need such lib to download.
Mayby it comes already with OS2007HE precompiled.

Installed xterminal
Installed mc
Downloaded 2 mentioned files to media card
than copied to / directory
and followed instructions.

Thanks j800. I figured out what was wrong. Some packages have been updated, so I updated your steps:

Here's the process I followed:
(FORGET) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *Install new libgps16

**Get http://packages.debian.org/sid/libgps17/armel/download
**mkdir tmp1
**dpkg --extract libgps17* tmp1
*Install new gpsd
**Get http://packages.debian.org/sid/gpsd/armel/download
**mkdir tmp2
**dpkg --extract gpsd_2* tmp2
*Copy new files into place
**cp tmp2/usr/sbin/gpsd /usr/sbin
**cp tmp1/usr/lib/* /usr/lib
*Tweak libs
**cd /usr/lib
**ln -s libdbus-1.so.2.0.0 libdbus-1.so.3

So then, as described in another post:

edit /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf using your mac address and BT reciever's name:
Quote:
#
# RFCOMM configuration file.
#

rfcomm0 {
# Automatically bind the device at startup
bind yes;

# Bluetooth address of the device
device 00:00:00:00:00:00;

# RFCOMM channel for the connection
channel 1;

# Description of the connection
comment "btG-7000";
}
power cycle to test the rfcomm's ability to bind on startup

at root prompt, "rfcomm" should report the receiver's data

in MM, open the settings dialog and choose the 'file path' option with "/dev/rfcomm0" as the path

then enable GPS.
