Does the gpsd have the right device in /etc/defaults/gpsd? It is /dev/tty/SAC0 thus: GPS_DEV="/dev/ttySAC1"
To test the gpsd you can do from your desktop: nc 192.168.0.202 2947 then type 'r' and hit enter. Looks like this then: ~$ nc 192.168.0.202 2947 r GPSD,R=1 $GPTXT,01,01,01,PSRF inv format*2B $GPTXT,01,01,01,PGRM inv format*34 $GPTXT,01,01,01,PFEC inv format*2C $GPRMC,,V,,,,,,,,,,N*53 $GPVTG,,,,,,,,,N*30 $GPGGA,,,,,,0,00,99.99,,,,,,*48 $GPGSA,A,1,,,,,,,,,,,,,99.99,99.99,99.99*30 $GPGSV,1,1,00*79 $GPGLL,,,,,,V,N*64 $GPZDA,,,,,00,00*48 gpsd uses 8-10% CPU here.
