>From your initial descriotion, It would appear that your driver is
functioning. Verify that the UART setting (baud, bpc etc.) match your GPS
device. Also check to see if the gps device requires any handshaking enabled.

The PXA255 BTUART can be configured to handle Bluetooth communications, or
Standard serial communications. The clock for the BTUART is capable of
handling the higher xfer rate needed to Support Bluetooth. The FFUART, or
Full Featured UART supports all standard communications port signals. This
includes all handshake and modem control signals. This too can be used for
your GPS if that is where you desire to connect.
