tangoGPS

eeePC, Debian Lenny, Debian Armel, Ubuntu, SuSE, Fedora, RedHat  etc.

These are generic i386 and ARM .deb - see below for distribution specific ones. Most distributions now offer tangoGPS - thus you can install directly from your distribution's package repositories - thus it will well fit into your system

tangogps_0.99.2-1_amd64.deb (64bit, compiled on Ubuntu 9.10)
tangogps_0.99.2-1_i386.deb (32bit, compiled on Debian Lenny)

tangogps_0.99.2-1_armel.deb-MER Maemo Mer
tangogps_0.99.2-1_armel.deb-Openmoko Openmoko

tangogps_0.99.2-1_xandros_i386.deb for Xandros as found on older eeePC (package made by David Roberts)

If you don't have a gps device connected to your laptop/computer then you can use "82.240.156.91" as gpsd host (in the config tab). [currently the service is not available]

Debian Lenny

Directly from Debian. Yes that's right: tangoGPS runs on: alpha, amd64, arm ,armel, hppa, i386, ia64, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s 390, sparc. I don't know why somebody would run it on a mainframe, but it is possible: IBM s390!
Thanks to Daniel Bauman for the Debian packaging.
