Somebody in the thread at some point said:

| FWIW i just flashed

http://buildhost.openmoko.org/daily/freerunner/200807/20080715/uImage-om-gta02-latest.bin
| today and i got a fix outside with my sd card inserted. Previously i
| never saw a satellite unless i took it out.

| Did that build have the patches i see at
| http://git.openmoko.org/?p=kernel.git;a=shortlog;h=andy ?

Those guys are built off "stable" branch going by the git hash, it
doesn't have the latest patches in yet that are in "andy".

The only GPS-related patch it should have is one that stops power from
idle / high UART TX pin leaking into GPS section when it is 'off', but
that isn't directly suspected.

So I dunno why your GPS is all happy after being happy the first time,
but long may it last :-)
