Sorry I forgot some info
I am using a GTA02 Revision 0350, no hardware fix for the buzz issue.
I got my GPS working only once, it was months ago on om-2008.8 and
since they I tried from time to time with a lot of distros but nothing
did the trick. I thought that it was my fault, but now many people say
they have no problem with GPS on SHR, so I thought I might give it a
try.
The complete logread output is attached.
Mar 13 18:51:50 is when I started to play with cli-framework .
I tried to connect to gpsd via telnet, (I don't think this might do
anything if cat /dev/ttySAC1 doesn't show anything but well...) here is
what I had in output :
GPSD,R=1
$GPGGA,,,,,,0,00,,,,,,,*66
$GPGSA,A,0,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,*1f
$GPGSV,1,1,00*79
$GPRMC,,V,,,,,,,,,*31
$GPGLL,,,,,,V*06
$GPVTG,,,,,,,,*52
and so on every time the same block.
