The GPS does not work in the different images from Basyskom for Archos G9.

As I'm unsure, where should I report the bug? In Mer's bugzilla or in the KDE's one?

The issue should likely be reported to the Mer tracker, as it relates to hardware.

As far as I know no program in Mer image uses gps, so why can you know the gps hardware does not work?

I don't konw if it works or not. It's just in the tray that the "position" icon says that there is no position available. Also, Marble says that no position is available. What type of position should use these other than GPS? Wifi? For Marble I doubt.

Or the GPS features are not enabled but it isn't said anywhere...

Opening the position icon allows you to enter your location. It is not a GPS function. You can set your location to the various places where you connect to the Internet.

Ok. But the button "change position" doens't do anything when I tap on it. I have the same with other buttons op that type in Plasma Active where nothing happens when tapping on it (in the activities e.g.). Maybe related with the QML problem I have with the keyboard.
