Hi, thanks for your report. I've prepared a package of the current gpsd release, 2.25. The autobauding code has improved a lot since 2.13, so chances are your problem is resolved with the new version. Could you please test the current version: <http://www.subnetz.org/debian/gpsd/> Please consider reporting your findings to the gpsd developers as well, so your receiver can be included in the gpsd hardware list: <http://gpsd.berlios.de/hardware.html> Cheers, Til
