gpsd can't do anything with a non-NMEA oncore yet, but i do have enough copies of enough revisions of enough versions of enough variants of oncores (thanks to this list) that i think i've got all the mode switching commands covered. gpsd is designed with autodetection and configuration in mind. where possible, we try to probe the receiver to see what speed it's running at, what protocol it uses, what hardware and firmware revision this particular device is, and will attempt to set up a receiver in a reasonable fashion. For example, if you've got an oncore in binary mode with all the messages turned off (or a thales/magellan ac12 for that matter) we should be able to detect that, and turn on enough messages to get reasonable use out of the gps.
