There have been instructions on the wiki [1] on how to use your FreeRunner
as a bluetooth GPS. I wrote a script to simplify the process. To use it
python, python-pygtk, gpsd and gps-utils need to be installed.

To install directly on your FreeRunner:

wget -O /usr/bin/BtGPS.py http://handheldshell.com/software/BtGPS.py

wget -O /usr/share/applications/BtGPS.desktop
