Hi

If you _only_ need logging, you can try a snapshot of my program [1] I am 
testing right now.
If you find anything (bugs - no feature requests ;-)) let me know. Otherwise 
I'll release soon...
It's not intended to replace tangogps or navit as it will never get a map - 
it's intended for track logging with a simple interface.
