[l.palm]

For whatever reason ,my Bluetooth connection is working today, with exactly the same setup ! Looks like my bluetooth is a little bit erratic so I'd like to have USB connection as a back-up

I have 2 GPS

- Garmin GPS60 with real USB connection it came with a USB Windows driver, I have been able to connect it to a demo version of Fugawi I run under Windows XP with Parallels Desktop, I installed the driver and in Fugawi I selected Garmin USB, no port selected and it's working. In GPSNavX and can't see the GPS, I tried to select the SIRF USB or other, but no luck. Garmin didn't provide any driver for OSX.

- Holux GPSSlim240 today it's working in Bluetooth but seems erractic. it came with a data USB cable (I tested with the Garmin GPS) and the Manual said to install a driver, it came with a OSX driver that looks like a lot the prolific driver. But once again I can't see the GPS in GPSNavX.

Any suggestion ? My understanding is that the Garmin use a true USB connection but the Holux use a USB/serial port. In each case, what type and what port shoul I select in GPSNavX ? In the port drop-of menu I see 3 ports
/dev/cu.Bluetooth-PDA-Sync
/dev/cu.Bluetooth-Modem
/dev/cu.BluetoothGPSReceiver-Bl-1

I use the last one for the Holux in Bluetooth;

Thanks a lot for your help
