Re: Sharing Gps?

Ill try with the pc. Ive established a bluetooth connection on the Macbook and it doesnt show up as a gps device only network connection and serial connection. In the mapping program it shows /dev/bluetooth-pda-gps but wont connect, probly becouse theres no bluetooth gps drivers for mac. Nebody else try to do this with a mac? please hold the mac smack talk, I use both systems and there both equally crappy haha.
