I'm using FoxtrotGPS with a similar setup: ASUS U36-JC laptop, Lubuntu  
13.04, gpsd, and a BU-353 USB GPS receiver. There is no search and no  
routing (and consequently, no turn-by-turn instructions). It does work  
well to show my current position overlaid on OSM tiles, and for recording  
tracks and waypoints for later editing in JOSM.

Often there are several ways to understand a given set of
facts; some of them may be more useful than others.
