I have always used the gps.py module that is included with linux on my desktop distros (debian, ubuntu etc). It can usually be found here:<div><br></div><div>/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/gps.py</div><div><br></div><div>
I am dunning Debian on my Freerunner, I copied gps.py from my desktop to the same location on the phone and it works just fine! Usage goes like this:</div><div><br></div><div><div>Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Feb 22 2008, 07:57:53) </div>
<div>[GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5363)] on darwin</div><div>Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.</div><div>>>> import gps</div>
<div>>>> g = gps.gps()</div><div>>>> g.query("admosy")</div><div>>>> g.fix.latitude</div><div>34.432875</div><div><br></div><div>More examples using gps.py here:</div></div><div><div><div>
