Hi Robin,

I am afraid i can't help you with the fonts, but perhaps with the gps.
Is there a gpsd running on the FR?
Or if it uses dbus, can you monitor if dbus gets location and satelite
updates?

If gpsd is running, you could save the nmea data to a file and use
gpsbabel to check if you have a fix or not.

Kind regards.
