    <p>I want to make sure FireFox is using my local GPS on my machine (Dell Mini-10) for Location Aware browsing, not Google wi-fi triangulation services. </p> <p>How would one make sure FireFox is using the GPS? To use GPS a driver or browser plugin (Loki?) I assume is needed to talk locally with Firefox and local hardware. Firefox config would need to be modified to point to a local URI? </p> <p>1) type about:config in FireFox address line, 2) filter by "geo" and you will see:</p> <ul> <li>List item geo.enabled;true geo.wifi.uri;<a href="https://www.google.com/loc/json" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.google.com/loc/json</a></li> </ul> <p>The "will it work" test would be working FireFox offline, and having a good GPS signal in the middle of nowhere (no wi-fi, radio turn off), Firefox should be able to report your GPS location. </p> <p>How to?</p>

    1. COThis question would probably be better asked on Super User (http://superuser.com/), a companion site of Stack Overflow for power-user type questions like this. Stack Overflow is intended for programming questions, and it seems like you're asking about configuration. If you are actually asking about how to write such a driver, I'd recommend you reword your question to make that clear; if you're asking about configuration, it would be best to move your question to Super User.
