Re: [Qgis-user] Live Mapping with QGIS on Toughbook
It does on Linux. It's always worked well for me after I stumble through setting up things. I should write it downbut haven't. I'm wondering though can you connect Bluetooth to GPSD - In other words can I connect my Linux Laptop to my phones GPS and still use GPSD? I've not tried mostly hadn't had the time or the "wanderlust" to work through the process. I assume you can. There's not much you can do these days with a linux workstation.

Re: [Qgis-user] Live Mapping with QGIS on Toughbook
Woot! I guess that's the one area I am fuzzy on is How QGIS interacts with GPS's. It seems like it's looking for either a com or USB port. Which with lets say you have a Bluetooth I'm not sure what you would do (I have yet to do the Bluetooth -> laptop -> QGIS Dance because I don't hate my life enough currently). I've connected external GPS (USBs) alot using GPSgate and supposedly Windows 10 will let you do the same thing if you configure the settings.I guess that depends on How the GPS is hooked into the Laptop.

Re: [Qgis-user] Live Mapping with QGIS on Toughbook
Unfortunately I don't have one to test (but someone I can call)
Two things to check:
1. Right Click in your QGIS toolbar area and activate your GPS
information panel. See if you're connecting to the GPS. Autodetect
should tell you something.
2. I've used the GPS Gate Splitter Software [1] on Windows 7/10 to
connect QGIS to an External GPS. Haven't had the joy to do
Bluetooth/internal GPS's but I'd expect Gate Splitter to at least get
you connected on an internal... Although I've heard Windows 10 has

Re: [Qgis-user] Live Mapping with QGIS on Toughbook
Hi, I have not used gps with QGIS since 2.16 but it would help if you explained to the mailing list what version of QGIS, OS, and what plugin or method you are using to connect to the GPS using QGIS. The problem is that QGIS and the GPS are not connecting?

If it’s the later, explain what you are doing and what versions of QGIS using. If you only get a position with the wifi, maybe you don’t have an actual GPS chip. Look at the computer specs. Some tablettes (iPods also) and rare phone only use wifi for positioning and do not use an actual GPS chip. Make sure you are not in airplane mode with antenna’s turned off.

[Qgis-user] Live Mapping with QGIS on Toughbook
I have been trying to use QGIS for live mapping on my Panasonic Toughbook Cf19 MK7 but I cannot get the GPS to connect when in the field. The software on the Toughbook shows it is picking up satellites so I am confident it isn’t the hardware. When I try to connect it occasionally picks up my location if I have wi-fi but without it never does. Any ideas what might be going wrong? ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org List info: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user Unsubscribe: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
