gpsd-2.32 fixes this timout error. However, there is still a serious error
in the speed output of gpsd-2.32, patch as
follows:

Subject: [kismac] gpsd and kismac - bug?
I have gpsd version 2.31 (the latest), and KisMac r99. Does anyone
else get KisMac disconnecting from gpsd after a fair while? When I go
"Reset GPS Subsystem" it reconnects and is fine.
However, I tried with a netcat session to gpsd, and that exhibited
the same behavior, getting cut off at the same time as KisMac, so I
think this is a bug in gpsd. We could include some code to attempt a
reconnection to gpsd if the connection was dropped, and then display
an error if we can't. I'll work on it.
