EDIT: didn't look close enough... yes it will crash if num_sats_used is 0.
Sorry
EDIT2: have to blame it on the early morning... need coffe...

Type the command as shown below and then shutdown and reboot 770. It is working great for me now.
Also, I was zoomed in a bit too far!
Looking like a good app.

On the subject of where the application goes from here, rather than forking which in my opinion is rather coarse grained, why not go the plug-in route and allow people to develop and install what they _want_ to develop and install, upon the same basic mapping software?
Clearly the app would probably have to mature first, otherwise API instability would probably piss off a lot of plugin developers

This is what Gnuite told me and it worked for me: [cut]

Hmmmm..... Is this comment correct or should the "not" be deleted?
Also, given that the other three constants start with RCVR_, I would call it RCVR_FIXED instead.
Code:
/** The connection with the receiver is up and a GPS fix is not available.
* No gtk_banner is visible */
GPS_FIXED

This patch check the NMEA checksum and doesn't skip potential end-of-string '\0' characters:

I'm not sure if that would cause a force-quit, though, since it's not a FATAL assertion failure, but I haven't actually tested the case with 0 used satellites, so I can't say for sure either way.

Also it appears that you need to be careful about what other bluetooth devices are near when you run it the first time after the install - the program tried to connect to my desktop (w/ a motorola bluetooth adapter) and it just wouldn't connect to my garmin gps. Even though I had it installed and working fine before (I just did a reflash).
The solution was to run "hcitool scan", note the gps' MAC address, then manually typing it into the settings menu.
Just in case somebody else finds themselves stuck like I was.
BTW, excellent work gnuite. If you're ever in SW Portland, I'll buy you a fine local microbrew (or two) at a real local dive.
Brad.
I will clarify for you and everyone else one major known bug, Maemo-mapper as for now (version 0.1), has a bug, if the gps -receiver don't have a fix before maemo-mapper is launched, it will crash when it tries to get a fix.
This is a known bug and should happen with almost all of gps-receivers. You tried with getting a fix first and then launching mapper?
And, there is a list in this forum that hopefully will someday have quite a decent list of working gps-receivers: http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...ead.php?t=1970
