Some earlier versions of gpsd I think had issues where you could only connect one client. Or it was a bug in the kernel drivers.. Anyways, multiple gpspipe instances have been working for me for a while now with gpsd-3.21. I also found some issues in gnss-motmdm driver for closing the gnss device, see: https://github.com/tmlind/linux/commits/droid4-pending-v5.8 And I think the xtra2.bin data for agps is now working too :) https://github.com/tmlind/droid4-agps/commits/master At least I now get a fix in about two minutes after running the update.sh, going outside, and starting cgps. > xgps from gpsd-clients is broken: probably missing dependency > on gtk3 libraries. > > user@devuan-droid4:/my/tui/lib$ xgps > Traceback (most recent call last): > File "/usr/bin/xgps", line 30, in <module> > gi.require_version('Gtk', '3.0') > File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gi/__init__.py", line > 129, in require_version > raise ValueError('Namespace %s not available' % namespace) > ValueError: Namespace Gtk not available > > Any ideas? No idea about the xgps related stuff, I mostly use cgps for testing with GPSD_UNITS=metric cgps. Regards, Tony
