A new Flyspray task has been opened. Details are below.
User who did this - Ken (marconi)
Attached to Project - LEDE Project
Summary - gpsd doesn't work with "Garmin USB binary" (nor NMEA2000)
Task Type - Bug Report
Category - Packages
Status - Unconfirmed
Assigned To -
Operating System - All
Severity - Medium
Priority - Very Low
Reported Version - Trunk
Due in Version - Undecided
Due Date - Undecided
Details - Supply the following if possible:
- Device problem occurs on
I tried it on GL-AR150, but it should reproduce on any device w/ USB
- Software versions of LEDE release, packages, etc.
LEDE 17.01.1
gpsd 3.16-1
- Steps to reproduce
If you have a device with "Garmin USB binary" (eg : eTrex), then
gpsd -n -N -G -D 4 /dev/ttyUSB0
... should show data once a second.
>From my reading of the code, even without a Garmin device, "-D 4" debug level should show a message of "Probing Garmin USB binary driver...\n"
>From my reading of the code, it looks a a build problem. 2 "defines" need to be made :
NON_NMEA0183_ENABLE
HAVE_LIBUSB
FYI, there is a similiar bug for "NMEA2000" : If you do "gpsd -h", you should see "NMEA2000" on the list of "drivers". I can file a separate bug for this if you want.
Thanks !
