Hello !
I have problems getting gps(d) to work properly.
I installed Kali on HD. Works fine.
In the new started session I installed gpsd and gpsd-clients. (apt-get)
Works fine.
gps has location (3D) and is visible on /dev/ttyUSB0.
Cat /dev/ttyUSB0 gives right data, gpsmon /dev/ttyUSB0 does the same.
cgps and xgps are running well, displaying correct gps-signals.
Kismet and Airodump are using the gps.
After Kali reboot some programs cannot access gps(d) anymore.
cat /dev/ttyUSB0 gives right data.
gpsmon /dev/ttyUSB0 gives right data.
cgps is running into timeout
xgps is running into timeout.
gpsd -n /dev/ttyUSB0 : no error
cgps : timeout
Kismet and Airodump : can't access gpsd
Kismet says : No GPS data (GPS not connected)
No Update in 15s, reconnect.
Kismet.conf with serial gps entry : same, GPS not connected
Test with another System :
Linux Mint (Rosa), apt-get install gpsd gpsd-clients : ok
Works fine.
cgps and all other programms are working well.
Install on Memory-Stick : ok
Reboot and test cgps : all ok, GPS(d) works like expected.
Hmm, so whats going wrong with Kali ?
In Backtrack 3, where gpsd was included, all worked well from scratch.
Its curious, that the port /dev/ttyUSB0 is displaying the correct data but the programms are not recognising it.
Do you have any idea how to fix it ?
What can I do to get access to gps(d) all the time ?
Thank you !
Andi
