Its quite easy to setup. 1) check /etc/init.d/fso-gpsd and set -S parametr to ip:port where ip is ie ip address of your wifi interface on neo where you would like to access gpsd from laptop, and port you can keep default gpsd. 2) on laptop check that this ip address is available with ping and then set address of gpsd in tangogps last tab to that ip. 3) if something goes wrong, check port availability with nmap and gps data on laptop side with gpspipe. -- uin:136542059 jid:[email protected] Jansa Martin sip:[email protected] JaMa
