I was able to get NMEA Java APIs (http://javanmea.sourceforge.net/) to do what I needed to do, I'm onto different things now :)
Thanks!

Hi!
This seems to be a problem of the rxtx-library. You could try with java 1.6, maybe this helps. I do not think, that using another java application that uses rxtx could communicate with the built in gps. Have you got another app to test with?
regards
christof.

I'm trying to run gpstool to get current coordinates on a Lenova laptop that has a built in GPS device. It's on COM7, and if I run listserialports it works fine and finds COM7.
--deviceinfo -d COM7 prints out:
