Add this to sys.txt:

[gps]
baud=38400
port=7

ok, maybe i have little problem with locating satellites :/

The first time it can take up to 20 minutes to get a satellite lock, and if you're not stationary and out in the open it may not happen at all.

Go outside and give it time...

fffuuu, i put it near window and its about 30minutes...

Are you sure the baudrate is correct?

Also you really need to be outside, primo needs to download the satellite position data before it can get a lock, this is transmitted like a song playing over and over on the radio, If you miss a bit of it due to low GPS signal you have to wait for it to be played again, this is why you should be outside in the open for the initial lock.
Once the data is stored, it is refreshed during normal use.

I dont know if its correct, i read it on some czech web about myguide...

Ok, is it "Autodetecting GPS receiver..." or "Looking for satellites..."

Autodetecting GPS receiver means primo cannot see the GPS receiver while looking for satellites means it can see the GPS receiver but no satellites are found (yet)

Try other baud rates if it's looking for satellites, like 4800, 9600, 57600 which are common rates.
