One of the few things I miss on my Replicant devices is the possibility to use GPS. I suppose it would be possible via a GPS receiver dongle. But it might be difficult to find one that works with a free driver.

If someone has knowledge about a GPS dongle that works with a free driver, I would appreciate a comment. Thanks.

I found this dongle: https://www.ebay.com/itm/GPS-USB-Dongle-Receiver-Windows-10-8-7-Vista-XP-Ce-Linux-Google-Earth-GPS-Navi/113268478110?hash=item1a5f53d09e:g:Q~cAAOSwv1RUad5A:rk:8:pf:0

The product page is here, but there doesn't seem to be any information about the driver!?

I got an usb gmouse gps device. It works on debian 9 64bit main which is software you may use,
share, modify and redistribute. I used sudo gpsd service start and xgps. If you can install
the software on replicant I do not know.
