The N800 version works just fine. Excellent job. Pity the N800 owning
original author was too lazy to do this months ago :-).

Just in case anyone needs to know, you can get the
required /dev/rfcomm0 up from a script something like:

#!/bin/sh

# GPS BT address goes here
BTADDR=00:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx

dbus-send --system --type=method_call --print-reply \
 --dest=com.nokia.btcond /com/nokia/btcond/request \
 com.nokia.btcond.request.rfcomm_bind string:$BTADDR string:SPP

In order to have the BT device (vice the USB device) as the default,
edit ~/.config/g-rays2/g-rays2rc to read:

[g-rays2]
devices=/dev/rfcomm0
