Bad news...
Using the Location Test tool, which logs GPS access (and seems to do so even when I do not enable the GPS through this tool), I saw that the GPS is turned on...
so the blinking indicator does mean the GPS is on, and that also means the config option of not to use GPS doesn't work.

the "start daemon" start a background process to update after the gui is closed.
ths gps option use ONLY gps, if is not checked use ONLY cell tower

And from what I see logged by Location Test, it does turn on the GPS (unless the logging is flawed? Maybe I need to take it outside and see if it sees any sats)
Or does anybody have a good way to see if the GPS hardware is turned on? Tried HealthCheck, didn't show me :/

The Location Test log all location events, from cell and gps. how much satellite in view and use you have ? if are not 0/0 you may be have others app pulling the gps...
if is blinking the "gps icon" this mean is waiting for a fix (from gps or cell)

OK, I stand corrected... Location Test reported 0 sats and didn't blink the icon, so that part seems OK.
Sorry about the wrong report!

Are you sure the "start daemon" works? Coz I only had it work after rebooting. I even grep:ed processes and saw nothing (also after closing the UI).
But after rebooting it was there. AND WORK IT DOES
I am very happy. I was using a home-hacked version of "gluppy" before to get the best Latitude functionality.... but this definitely works better now!
Many thanks to mr Linfati

@MasterZap
please, run GoogleLatitudeGUI from a terminal and when you push the "start daemon" button will be writed
LatitudeGUI: demonio /path/to/GoogleLatitudeDaemon
please, can verify if the path is correct, thanks !
EDIT: fixed in 0.6-2

Well, it starts it,.. but it dies when you close the GUI... probably coz you start it as a child process??
