Try using cat to read the /dev/ttySAC* devices and see if you get NMEA data from any of them first. I have a suspicion that whatever handles the naming of the devices changed after an opkg upgrade to the daily feeds. Then change your /etc/default/gpsd file so that it has whatever device spits out NMEA data. Let me know how this turns out. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

What about "opkg flag user gpsd" - I'm guessing, but that sounds like it's meant to flag a package as manually managed by the user. j > > HTH, > -- > MiKael > > ___ > Openmoko community mailing list > community@lists.openmoko.org > http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Lock version of package with opkg
I'm using the scaredycat repo and gpsd doesn't seem to work right. Is there any way to lock the old version so I can do an 'opkg upgrade' without upgrading gpsd? ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
