Dear Maintainer, dear Benoit,

I am an owner of an Ericsson H5321 gw module and experienced gpsd user. Since 
my last approach to finally make use of my gps receiver, there must have 
happend something with the debian configuration. The information from the 
thinkwiki.org pages were, as you already mentioned here, useful for me and 
turned out to make the gps receiver work for me. I already tested out functions 
of the F3507g receiver and posted a working solution on ubuntuforums about 7 
years ago. Now I use a different receiver and when first tested everything 
seemed working well. This was about 3 years ago. Now I am confused that none of 
the previously working steps led to any output on my device port. When last 
tested I recognized that something had changed in the way gpsd can operate on 
the port. In the past it wasn't possible to directly read /dev/ttyACM2 because 
of permission issues. The necessary information are posted here: 
https://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/gpsd-mit-ericsson-f5521gw-mobile-broadband-mod/#post-6727147
 . 
For now I can only report that gpsd can't read from the pipe mentioned in this 
post. So for me it's not reproduceable anymore. Maybe I'm missing something. I 
searched the web again but didn't find a solution. 
I turned the gps receiver on in the way I was able to remember, went outside, 
but couldn't get any output of the NMEA stream when reading from /dev/ttyACM2. 
I tried around with hard-resets and different ways connecting clients, reading 
directly from port, but nothing turned out to work for me.

Any further help would be appreciated,

Ben
