I'm looking for a way to force maemo-mapper to go to a arbitrary position (nothing to enter).

I wonder how I can simulate a GPS device to do so?

My plan is to setup maemo-mapper so as it fetches the info to, say, /dev/tty10... then NMEA sentences to the dummy device.

Something like

exec 3<>/dev/tty10
echo "t$GPRMC,040302.663,A,3939.7,N,10506.6,W,0.27,358. 86,200804,,*1A" > /dev/tty20


I tried few things but nothing I can do as a poor linux user works. Can somebody give me some directions pleeaaaaaase?
