If I remove the symlink, it works but without the GPS (as one might reasonably expect) and this is the corresponding syslog message:
Jun 18 17:59:02 pscpc ntpd[3075]: refclock_open /dev/gps0: No such file or directory Jun 18 17:59:02 pscpc ntpd[3075]: configuration of 127.127.20.0 failed So it looks as if a failed open is occuring, and that is crashing ntpd with a segmentation fault. What is not clear is why the two type of failed open should differ, and why it can't open /dev/gps0 while gtkterm seems happy enough to do so. -- ntpd sementation fault using NMEA driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/596010 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to ntp in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
