gps via python, using dbus

[Matt]

Firstly thank for posting the code, very intresting to pore over.

However, it has not worked for me.
Any ideas ?

debian-gta02:~# python ogpsd_methods.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "ogpsd_methods.py", line 8, in <module>
     constatus = 
obj.GetConnectionStatus(dbus_interface='org.freedesktop.Gypsy.Device')
   File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/dbus/proxies.py", line 68, in 
__call__
     return self._proxy_method(*args, **keywords)
   File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/dbus/proxies.py", line 140,
