You do want to use GPSd with Xastir, that'll come close to what you're looking for.
I don't know if the USB GPS will work with the stock linux install on the eee, but in any case, you're better off with a serial GPS and a good serial/USB connector. The thing to do is open up a terminal, plug the GPS in, and do a 'dmesg' to see what device the GPS shows up as. Then you can configure GPSd for that device, and tell Xastir to use GPSd. -Dan N7NMD William M. Bickley wrote: > Is that a combo which will work?
