/usr/sbin/gpsdriver
/usr/libexec/navicore-gpsd-helper
/usr/sbin/gpsd -n -N -F /tmp/.gpsd_ctrl_sock /dev/pgp
"/dev/pgp", not "/dev/pgps" ? Or is the display cut off? I guess you can try "/dev/pgp" in the "File Path" field instead of "/dev/pgps" - I doubt it will work, but it's worth a try.

If it doesn't work, then I need to scrounge around for documentation on how third party software is supposed to use the internal device. I don't understand why libgpsmgr isn't working. And I don't understand why there is absolutely no documentation on how to use the internal GPS receiver. (Well, I have a theory, but it's not very nice.)
