Hi,
for some time I have not used GPS live tracking in Qgis. Now I have
tried it, and it seems like there is some strange problem. Reported
GPS coordinates are stuck to unchanging values. When I run GPS via
gpsd, I can verify that GPS reports different, correct coords (via
xgps). I running Qgis 1.8.0 on openSuse linux, I have also tried
latest git master with same results. I am rather desperate and fresh
out of ideas.

Problem fixed... Qgis uses string to double conversion function that is
locale dependent. NMEA messages from GPS use . decimal separator. So if
you current locale has different decimal separator, then you get only
the part before dot, which makes the position seem stuck. Will be
reporting that. Meanwhile setting
export LC_NUMERIC=en_US.utf8
before running Qgis does the trick.
