Thanks for the answers.
And yes, Herald, I did read some stuff on the OTG.
It's just that I had been using OTG on the other platforms
(ubuntu/meego) without noticing it.
And that's what I like, so I can concentrate on the code and the logic
of my app.
So I'll have to downgrade the functionality of my app for Sailfish (to
simple 2D navigation using the internal gps). :-(
(Sorry Chris, no thermal spotting/fixing experiments).
And for the fully functional 3D version I will have to switch to ubuntu
phone. Several devices with OTG up there.

Don't know why is there a difference between Sailfisch and MeeGo.
I don't think there is. You're running on different hardware, though;
the N900 and N9 did have the wiring to support USB OTG.
Can I enable power on the USB port? (escape would be a battery powered
USB hub)
No, Jonni already gave you a link which answered this. The Jolla just
doesn't have the necessary wires.
Will Sailfish automatically set a up a /dev/ttyUSBsomething when the
device (like an external GPS) is plugged in?
Perhaps, if you compile the necessary kernel modules, assuming you can
power up the devices without power from the Jolla.
