Correction. The terminal reads: Program start GPS:gpsd /dev Is this right? It doesn't seem to be as I expect it to read: GPS: gpsd /dev/rfcomm0 On 3/2/07, Rein Couperus <rein@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
As already stated in the wiki: * First start gpsd with you gps connected. * The man page of gpsd says you start gpsd with 'gpsd /dev/xxx' (gpsd /dev/ttyUSB0 in my case) * It also says the -f option is depricated. An -p option is not mentioned at all (which is why I did not check it in the first place.) * Then start the pskmail client. The client checks if gpsd is running (it looks for 'gpsd /dev in the process table), if yes it starts the gps thread and the termnal will say 'GPSD /dev/ttyUSB0'. * Pskmail now uses the gps value for beaconing, either by hand or automatically. * The Options display is updated AFTER the first beacon has been sent. * If there is no gps value the position of the Options dialog will be used.
