Gpsdrive from: http://www.elisanet.fi/tapio.tolvanen/nokia770.html Then my blanking disable patched binary: http://westerstrom.com/projects/maemo-gpsdrive I get the same bluetooth loss without blanking patch even when keeping it active by touching the screen often. My GPS receiver is made by socketcom. I have never had any problem with it when connecting it to laptop or IPAQ. So we can rule that out. > >> The same happens when I'm using my bluetooth keyboard.

The keyboard is a ThinkOutside HID compatible bluetooth keyboard. I'm using keyboard-plugin 0.2.2-2: http://770.fs-security.com/keyboard-plugin/btkeyboard-plugin_0.2.2-2_arm.deb > >> I'm using 3.2005.51-13. >> >> Have anyone else experienced similar problems? >> >> Maybe I should gain root access and try to restart bluetooth (hcitool >> hci0 down/up)? > > That resets bluetooth chip so it should help.
