Hi,
I'm running a snapshot from 29.06.2006 on a soekris net4801 board. I
also recently bought a Globalsat BU-353 USB GPS receiver. When I attach
the receiver to the soekris board the kernel reports the following:
uplcom0 at uhub0 port 1
uplcom0: Prolific Technology Inc. USB-Serial Controller, rev 1.10/3.00, addr 2
ucom0 at uplcom0
I then add the following lines to /etc/ntpd.conf:
sensor *
sensor uplcom0
But when ntpd starts it doesn't say anything about a found sensor. Should
the GPS receiver work with ntpd as it is or does it need a specialized
driver to handle it properly? I'd appreciate any input. I've tried to
search the archives for any hints but I can't seem to find any.
The dmesg of the soekris board is below and also the ntpd.conf I'm using.
