I've rebooted and still experienced the problem I describe with the Holux GPSlim 240.
I've got the N800 (firmware one before the current) OS2007 of course.
I do have the RTComm stuff. Hadn't seen it written earlier that this may cause a problem, so excuse me if this was already covered. I've been trying to keep up.
I guess I must have paired it at some point. It finds it and, as I said, it works for a short time. I drove with it and it worked while moving. However, I've had the GPS for months and don't remember having to pair it.

As for the NMEA capture, I'm going to need a hand on how to do that. What's the command I need to run to get that for you?

Thanks!
