Hello all,
I found another issue and then hit a hard stop.
In the HOWTO section "Live-test the GPS", the reader is instructed to
build gpsd using:
|$scons timeservice=yes magic_hat=yes nmea0183=yes
fixed_port_speed=9600 fixed_stop_bits=1 When running gpsmon
/dev/gpsd0, it is expected that there are scrolling lines at the
bottom showing raw data. I didn't get that. Cross checking with the
clockmaker script showed that 2 options are missing from the HOWTO
text: ublox=yes mtk3301=yes I did a scons --clean and rebuilt adding
the 2 options and voila, scrolling raw data at the bottom. Paul, can
you submit a fix for that too? |
|When you say that you 'didn't get that' - what exactly happened? You
ran gpsmon /dev/gpsd0, and it just returned to the prompt? Or garbage
onscreen? or....?
Of note, I'm a minor contributor here - Not a coder, just a sysadmin,
and avocational wordsmith. Gary, esr, etc would be the coding magicians.

|Here is where I hit the hard stop. Upon running ntpshmmon, there is
no data available. Up until this point, I would say that the build was
going well. Everything met expectation (after adding the 2 scons build
options). The only output I get is the ntpshmmon version and the line
showing the column headers but no scrolling data. |
When you say 'there is no data available' is that message what was
displayed onscreen, or something else?
Regarding using the Debian package, Gary already answered, but it's also
worthwhile building it because - even as excellent as Debian is at
getting new stuff distributed "quickly" (in distro time), the git repo
has the code that's still sizzling when it's put on your plate.
