hi,<br><br>i am on it - but i have to add hardware detection to hal and solid first - as these devices are mostly USB to TTY bridges, we have to make same sort of "asking the user what to do with the detected device".<br>
<br>after that - it should feed the data to geoclue ...<br><br>someone already added support for USB to TTY devices to kde trunk, but not dependend on gps devices.<br>i can forward this mail if you want. geoclue integration itself is not started because of this.<br>

Hi,<br>

Has there by chance been any progress on this? :-)<br>
It would be cool if someone could send me some GeoClue integration patches for<br>
Marble ...<br>
<br>
Best Regards,<br>
