Re: [Debian -FSO -GPS] No Fix
I'm using FSO 4.1 , and have a similar problem. Enabling debug on framework gives messages that suggest it is sending NMEA data when frameworkd is expexting UBX data.

Re: [Debian -FSO -GPS] No Fix
I've put milestone 4 back on, and I'm now getting UBX messages in the debug log, so something clearly broke in 4.1 . Took a while (it's raining hard and I'm indoors) but I finally got a fix. Methinks something's broken between 4 and 4.1 - there doesn't appear to be an existing bug for this so I'll stick something on.

Re: [FSO] M4.1 issues (GPS, Suspend)
This is the behavour I noticed; it seems that the GPS resets itself for some reason and then ogpsd/frameworkd can't talk to it any more because it is expecting UBX but is getting NMEA. There's a bug #265 against it but not been a lot of activity on that recently. Search the mailing list for GPS - it came up originally in a debian distro but with the same symptoms so it's most likely a frameworkd problem rather than FSO specific. On FSO M4 , on the GPS app in Zhone, you can get status info for each satellite by pressing the unlabled buttons on screen; even without a fix you should normally get a few with 'signal unusable' or 'downloading' or something other than 'searching' even if you are indoors (for certain values of indoors of course). On Friday 12 December 2008 14:53:53 Olivier Migeot wrote: For a few days, I've been testing FSO M4.1, mostly because of my snip problem is, GPS subsystem doesn't seem to work at all (either through Zhone, Tango or cli-framework). I launch cli, Request GPS resource (which took less than 10 secondes). And then, I can wait forever, I can't see a single satellite (through GetSatellites()). Not even a little one with a weak signal or anything. gpstime.GetTime() is still returning 0. Maybe it's just my lack of luck (I'd rather). Some time ago, I managed to get a fix both with QTE4.4 demo and another (Gtk based) GPS test app. Is this the normal behaviour of a GwaF (GPS without a Fix), or not?
