Yes, position-example should work fine. The example may look like a lot of code, but most of that is setting options or demoing the get_position-method. You're basically only interested in * geoclue_position_new() -call * g_signal_connect() -call * position_changed_cb -function > Should I have to start gpsd? Should I have to configure something? Yeah, it needs to run already, that's the way gpsd works. Good that you asked about the config: I had forgotten all about it. Using default local port works just fine, but remote or non-default ports cannot be used yet. Not a big deal, just haven't remembered it: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15207 > If I write "cat /dev/rfcomm0" I am able to see my device updates. How to > pass this info to geoclue? Make sure gpsd is running. If not, run by hand ("gpsd /dev/rfcomm0"), or use init scripts: you'll need to edit /etc/defaults/gpsd if you do that. Then start "example/position-example Gpsd" and wait for fix. Jussi
