Can't autodetect old firmware.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. No firmware detection in the config.ini e.g. autodetect
2. Old firmware e.g. 2.08 F-OTH-ON-0709031
3. python gh600_console.py

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

It cant detect the old firmware e.g.

zingo@dual:~/bin/globalsat/gh6xx/globalsat/src$ python gh600_console.py

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Checked out revision 163 from SVN
Watch Firmware 2.08 F-OTH-ON-0709031
Linux (Ubuntu)

Please provide any additional information below.

If I force it to "firmware: 1" in the config.ini everything seem to works ok.

Thank you, I hope I fixed both in r164 (please test).

The GH615-part is currently hard for me to test, as I have upgraded my unit to 
the 
new firmware, and I have yet to receive word from Globalsat, that downgrading 
is 
doable. So if you find any more bugs (i am sure you will), please post them. 
Thanls.
