Dear Maemo users,

I am using my Bluetooth GPS device (Nokia LD-1W) for GPS tracking - that is, I 
have a simple client connected to gpsd, recording the track. gpsd, in turn,  
readis the serial link (rfcomm) in watcher mode.

Things work just fine, but there are 2 annoying glitches. 

1. Bluetooth seems to get suspended whenever whenever the display switches off 
(including when I put the cover on). The connection is reopened when the 
display comes back on (gpsd takes care of that), but alas, no data goes from 
the GPS to gpsd in the meantime.

2. Even more annoyingly, the Bluetooth stack tends to get corrupted whenever 
the display is switched off. All communication hangs, hcitool scan exits with 
'Connection timed out error', and I have to switch the device to offline mode 
and back to get things working. I believe this problem was reported in an 
earlier thread in February.

The question is, is there a way to prevent the Bluetooth from being suspended 
when the display switches off? I figure that if problem 1 is solved, problem 2 
will go  away as well.

I am using 3.2005.51-13.

Thanks in advance,
Ondrej
