What's the GPS? Interface? Presume Google has been of little help?

A reply from a possibly bored Gareth. Excellent =)

Its a Garmin GPS60. Not, NOT a GPSMAP60Cs or CSX

It connects via USB to Karmic Koala.

Or at least is meant to.
Dmesg is showing something as connecting to usb, butg its not filling me with confidence...

Oh, it's certainly doable. I've got mine hooking up to my Ubuntu-running laptop by both USB and Bluetooth, and it's pretty cool. But, of course, the trick is to either (a) find somebody who's done it with your particular hardware combination or (b) gain a general understanding in the process and hack your own way to an answer. Neither answer is quick, but at least it's not Windows.
