Yes, the GPS BT Addr and Current GPS Saved (in configure panel) are setted correctly to my gps BT address; (OBD BT and V1 BT all zero)

When i start minigpsd i see gps connected but always red circle state:

~ $ ps | grep bt

1148 root 2948 SW< /usr/bin/btcond -l
...
~ $ ps | grep rf

292 root SW< [krfcommd]

1339 user 1452 SW< rfcomm connect 0 00:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (<-my gps BT address)

BUT ONLY if i perform before in xterm:

rfcomm connect 00:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (<-my gps BT address)

Connected /dev/rfcomm0 to 00:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (<-my gps BT address) on channel 1

Press CTRL-C for hangup

and then start minigpsd i see the green circle with the sats dots and btconnect.sh:

~ $ ps | grep bt

1150 root 2948 SW< /usr/bin/btcond -l

1654 user 1884 SW< sh /usr/bin/btconnect.sh 0 00:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (<-my gps BT address)

1657 user 1892 SW grep bt

~ $ ps | grep rf

292 root SW< [krfcommd]

1547 user 1588 SW rfcomm connect 00:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (<-my gps BT address)

1874 user 1892 RW grep rf

I have only the SUDSER package with a psw setted for the root rights, i don't know if it's necessary anything else.

And what 'bout the rfcomm.conf and hcid.conf in /etc.

Maybe i have to modify anithing in these files

Thanks in advance
