Hi John,
I also use a USB receiver (UniTraQ BT-5722) and gpsd with Xastir. I find
it quite handy to use xgps (part of gpsd-tools on Fedora) to monitor sat
status and the gpsd feed. And, fwiw, using a CVS update of Xastir
compiled this evening - it's all working fine here.
As I understand it, gpsd passes along the serial $GPSx strings as
they're received from the receiver. Not sure what 'new format' you're
talking about.

Hi running Xastir V1.9.9 compiled from svn 6/13/2010. GPSD V2.92-4

looking at the data in the lower left corner xastir reports 0 sats and fix
invalid. I suspect it is a error asscociated with the new format gpsd is
using but not certain. possibly there is a workaround I have not found? I
have 3Dfix and good gps data running XGPS, also have used this hardware
combination with success with older versions of xastir/gpsd. P.S. The OSM
support is fantastic, thank you.
