Unable to conect to GPSD #39

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Sorry, if this is more appropriate to be raised on a mail list please direct me 
to it.
I have a bluetooth BlueNext GPS and is working fine with GPSD / Navit etc.  But 
I am unable to get it to connect with Monav, I get:
$ monav-client 
No GPS Sensor found! GPS Updates are not available

Would this be a bug during compiling into a Debian package or something in 
Monav itself?

All other functions within Monav appear to work correctly.

Hi,

At the moment MoNav uses QtMobility to access GPS hardware. Sadly QtMobility 
does not provide this functionality under desktop Linux / Windows system, but 
only for mobile devices.

Hi,

I found an implementation that helps here. The origin is the cacheme 
application. There a GpsdPositionInfoSource was created that implements a 
position service using Gpsd.
Maybe you can add this to the next release.

Great work Thomas, I'd be thrilled if a solution can be found and maintained 
that allow Monav to support GPSD!

Nice find. Testing it will take a bit of time, though, since I do not own GPSD 
capable hardware.

I have tested it shortly. The values are shown in monav's GPS report and the 
location is marked in the map. What else needs to be tested?

Hi Thomas, are you compiling for a specific linux distro and if so which?

I've built it on my netbook, which runs Ubuntu 11.04 (i386).

I just uploaded a package to Debian with the above patch. (monav 0.3-4)

Waiting for 0.3.1 :)

Sorry for the ( very long ) delay, new work and nice summer weather took their 
toll :-D

I integrated the patch in r2f749f8ea900

Could also this bug be marked as fixed?
