 Hello at all,
 
 sorry for this crosspost, but I think this topic is for both list interesting.
 
 Today I flashed the new SHR-Image (lite) from 24. nov. 2009 on my freerunner, 
 and installed the latest svn version from navit, 2797.
 
 At the start of navit I get this error message:
 
 ===
 vehicle_gpsd:vehicle_gpsd_try_open:Trying to connect to localhost:default
 vehicle_gpsd:vehicle_gpsd_try_open:Warning: gps_fd is 0, most likely you have 
 used a gps.h incompatible to 
 libgpsvehicle_gpsd:vehicle_gpsd_try_open:Connected to gpsd fd=0 
 evwatch=0xaa3e0
 navit:main_real:Using '/home/root/.navit/navit.xml'
 ===
 
 In general the gps is working, tested with tangogps. Only navit doesn't see 
 the gps.
 
 What can I do to solve this problem? If any further information is needed, 
 I'll try to give my best. :-)

I'm at the same error right now. I tried different settings but nothing
helped. Now i wanted to compile navit on the freerunner myself but
within the shr feeds are not all required packages to do so. And i don't
know how to cross-compile it on my pc. :/
Gps works right with tangogps, omgps and advanced-geocaching-tool so it
have to be something with navit. I have the latest 2797 version from [1]
installed and not the one in the shr feeds. I also linked libgps.so.17
to libgps.so.16. When i look in my current position navit shows
something with 832° in front which is a bit off my current position. ;)

Ciao,
 Rainer

 Have you tried (re)starting fso-gpsd?
 
 AFAIK, tangogps, omgps and advanced-geocaching-tool are all using gypsy and 
 navit is still using gpsd (and fso-gpsd is a compatibility daemon).
 
 I sometimes had the same problem and each time fso-gpsd was not running. It 
 should normally be started when the system boots but I found that sometimes 
 it was'nt running when navit tries to use it.

Tanogps uses gpsd, so this could not be the problem.
But now i tried by accident (opkg update downgraded navit r2797 to shr-u
version r2735) the navit version in the shr repository (r2735) and this
version works and connects to the gps without problems. I also can see
my correct position on the map. So it seems that the precompiled
binaries from the navit homepage for the openmoko are not compatible
with current shr-u. Tomorrow i will try to contact someone from the
navit projects and say this so maybe we can find out where the problem
lies. Because i like to have the newest one and not the one from the
shr-u repository. :)

Are you sure its because gpsd?

svnrevs  2760 have this problem 
http://trac.navit-project.org/ticket/506
try with navit.xml config if you're using modified one

No, i was only saying, that (fso-)gpsd is working right because tangogps
also uses gpsd and it works.

I used the navit.xml from r2797 so this was not the problem. Right after
start in the console navit shows this gps.h incompatibility error mesage
befor it starts. So i think that the navit package from the navit
homepage are compiled with another version of some lib which is not
compatible with shr-u.
