I have NETGRAPH_BLUETOOTH et al defined in my kernel which automagically
creates /dev/ubt0. With the appropriate entries in
/etc/bluetooth/[hosts|hcsecd.conf], I simply do ..

imb_at_toshi:/home/imb> less bin/gps-connect.sh
#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/rfcomm_sppd -b -a QstarzGPS -t /dev/ttyp9

 .. to bring it out to a device where roadnav or gspdrive can read it.

Should I be doing something else in this script now?
