UpFront: haven't played around with the raspberry yet.


My understanding was that your /dev/pps0 entry appeared too late.
( instantiated late by udev )

is the module "pps-gpio" loaded during system startup ?

lsmod ...

Thanks, uwe.  I've been using the pages you list as a guide.

On a working (with PPS pulses) system:

cat /etc/modules contains "pps-gpio"

lsmod shows:

pps_ldisc used by: 2
pps_gpio used by: 1
pps_core used by: 4 pps_gpio,pps_ldisc


On a system with nothing connected to the PPS:

cat /etc/modules contains "pps-gpio"

lsmod shows:

pps_gpio used by: 0
pps_core used by: 1 pps_gpio


I'm unsure how to interpret the difference, or what pps_ldisc does.

what happens if you "insmod pps_ldisc" into the "not ready" system?

you may need a call to ldattach afterwards:

"grep" your way through the udev scripts !?
