If you'd like to install GTK G-Rays2 for Ubuntu 12.04 just add my Launchpad ppa and go ahead:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:dabang/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gtk-g-rays2
Or just download from Launchpad and install manually.
You can find the Debian packages here (the archive contains a signed md5sum file, see my key here):
You might want to install gpsbabel as well (this already comes with Debian's/Ubuntu's default repositories):
sudo apt-get install gpsbabel
Before you can make use of GTK G-Rays2 you need to put a new udev rule in place - otherwise only root would have access to the device. So, create a file called
/etc/udev/rules.d/90-wintec.rules
which has the following content:
# rules for Wintec WBT-201 GPS device
ATTRS{idVendor}=="10c4", ATTRS{idProduct}=="ea60", MODE="0666"
Then restart udev (or simply reboot), plug in your WBT-201 and run GTK G-Rays2!
Here's a screenshot (without device attached):
To download GPS tracks go to "File -> Save as ...".
Credit goes to Jonathan Hudson for writing this nice tool and providing packages for Ubuntu 10.10. All of the above is based on these - thanks!
