Hi, I have the same problem with the current unstable. I think the problem is that the GPS chip cannot be powered up. I dont remember the path exactly (I dont have the Freerunner with me currently), but I found a message in /var/log/frameworkd.log that /sys/....../gps/.../pwron could not be written. However it seems that .../pwron has been changed to .../power_on (which exists) Shall I open a ticket for that?
