3) source code shows that tangogps is sending "r" command to gpsd
port. These one-letter commands are not supported by gpsd 2.92-1 in
debian unstable and squeeze. tangogps should use libgps19 to talk to
GPS instead of trying to talk the protocol manually.

seems to work but I have not done much testing with it.
