UGGH... I haven't used mapper for a couple of months, but we are planning a road trip next week. I innocently upgraded to MM 2.3.1 on my os2007he 770, and of course, the BT GPS won't connect. I'm glad you guys found a fix, but I couldn't get past step 1.

That url above contains no package to download. I searched the debian package repository for libgps16 and libgps and got no hits. If anyone has a suggestion that might save me a few hours of searching, I'd really appreciate it.

Also, it looks like the complete and total fix for this problem is spread out over several posts in this thread. I'd be happy to quote the posts all in one reply or compile the whole list of steps if someone could just tell me which post numbers are the relevant ones. There are fixes for os2008 on the n810 and n800 scattered through the thread as well adding even more confusion.

On a positive note, MM 2.3.1 seems to perform quite well. I'm not bothering with rotating, but the panning is great. I also really appreciate map db compaction.
