oh, do you have to buy a gps device, or does it have a built in one, i know nothing of gps, if I need one whats really compatible with bt2 kismet etc
gps mapping with kismet
does kismet come pre setup on bt2 for gps mapping or do you have to install extra components. I prefer to use google earth, but whatever one that is easier to set up will be fine, since im still trying to learn BT and Linux.

ive seen two gps online but I know what is compatible with kismet or not, I hate to go buy one and not be compatible, but im also going to use it for other things, if there is a nice one compatible can you let me know
Pioneer Portable GPS Navigation System at walmart
Garmin eTrex Venture Cx GPS handheld walmart
any help would be grateful
Try to find compability with
gpsd (responsible in linux for gps connection)
gpsdrive
The gps receiver should have
serial, usb or bluetooth connection with laptop
Most of Garmin receivers work with linux
and many more that can send data to PC in NMEA standard (Pionieer ?)
i know im looking at the Garmin handheld, but they dont tell me if it supports gpsdrive or not and they hook up through usb and serial, has anyone heard how good/compatible this one is
GARMIN 60C GPS
if anyone knows a good voice direction one that works i'll want to get one like that instead.
Garmin uses NMEA output over serial port, and is supported by gpsdrive. The USB output is used for downloading & uploading data, and I believe that while there are some binary control commands that can be used, no NMEA comes out of this port.

In God we trust, all others we monitor
so in order to use it with kismet, i have to have a computer with serial, no usb support with kismet/gpsd?
There is a serial-to-usb cable as well , but probably not worth trying.
Some guys have managed to make 60C work with linux

and it looks that it was connected by USB.
Still don't know if it would work easily with BT/Kismet.
I use simple no-screen receiver with SiRF Star III chip and bluetooth connection to PC.
bluetooth pretty compatible? never used it before.
what would really help is someone who can list the nicest one they/ or someone they know used, I like to get an all in one.
Id prefer garmin like a handheld, my store has a entrex legend for 99.00 but do they work with usb and get good reception?
