Version: 0.8 RC1 (using 4.2.96 (KDE 4.2.96 (KDE 4.3 RC2)), Debian packages) Compiler: cc OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.30-1-686 Updates of the position provider can only be seen when the navigation mode is enabled. UI suggests updates occur independent of that option.
I think there are three parts: (1) Show current position and speed on the left (2) Show gps track and position in the map (3) Center the map on the current position (1) now happens always, i.e. independent of the navigation mode [1]. I think it would make sense to do the same for (2). Lastly, (3) is currently broken (happens never), but I have a patch here I can commit after some cleanup which enables centering for navigation mode. What do you think about (2)?

SVN commit 1113387 by nienhueser: Current Location UI changes: Possibility to choose GPS source, condense, allow jumping to the current position. Remove tooltips and label for features that are not implemented (auto-centering and fuzzy location description).
