What happens with gpsd is completely unrelated to what happens when you use ntpd's own NMEA and PPS support. When you have experienced that you should be within .4 sec before PPS works when using gpsd, you should not project that onto ntpd and its PPS support. The .4 sec check is within gpsd. _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
