You could try a variation on the script at the bottom of the page below. You'll need to disable any gps daemon(s) you may have insstalled before running it or they'll conflict. The script was intended to find the effect of the SD clock idle and drive strength kernel settings, cycling through them in turn and measuring time to first fix. Be warned - it'll take a long time to complete if run unmodified! http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/FreeRunner_GPS_Software_Fix_TTFF_Measurement_Test _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
