I installed using the script at http://wiki.debian.org/DebianOnFreeRunner and, after turning on GPS, tried cat /dev/ttySAC1 but this just returns to the prompt without showing any data. Then I found the /dev/s3c2410_serial1 mentioned at http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Manual_Debian#GPS but now I realize that page is obsolete (relative to the first).
