I'm releasing minigspd-0.31g1 which should be in extras now.

(I've also added the files as an attachment to this message)

Updates:

gpsreplay (command line). Requires unzip to be installed but it is NOT a dependency. "gpsreplay [-f speed] *.kmz" will read the kmz file (or the unzipped kml if you do *.kml) and pretend to be minigpsd. The timing is still a bit off (there should be an update shortly). It also updates ALL the structures like the OBD and V1 radar detector along with the GPS data.

The next update to gpsreplay will have PLL code which processes the data at the same interval as they were recorded. The speedup skips entire seconds, e.g. "-f 60" will output a single second from each minute. Remember that you can watch Google Earth update using x.kml (or x-1500-60.kml - it must end in "kml" for 1500 feet, 60 degree lookat).

the minigpsd default web page displays the status with a LINK to both the google maps page and one to a weather radar map (us only).

In the source, there is a patch against maemo-mapper 2.6.2 that adds direct minigpsd support. A 10Hz GPS (or gpsreplay in fast forward) will overload the GPS read thread in the current maemo-mapper. In addition, it allows the minigpsd KMZ files (not any generic KMZ!) to be read in as routes or tracks. This can take several seconds.

There is also a 6dof bluetooth controller system for the SparkFun module (the one previous - the v3): http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/pro...oducts_id=8454

I'm also working on the dashboards and there are some improvements there already.

Support will be moved to this thread so don't post in the earlier ones.
