I'm using openmoko-shr-image-glibc-ipk--20090427-om-gta02.rootfs.tar.gz

And I have found gpsfake on Jaunty in python2.6-gps package. But when I
run this command it says 

$ gpsfake -b -c 0.1 -o "-n -N" -r "r" 20090302_180050.log 
Processing 20090302_180050.log...fakegps: no sentences in test load.

And I'm sure that there is gps data in the file.
$ ls -l 20090302_180050.log 
-rw-r--r-- 1 daniel daniel 56376 2009-03-03 02:16 20090302_180050.log


So what might be wrong? I don't care where to run gpsfake, on FR or
laptop. Just replay :)
