-gpsd is a service daemon that monitors one or more GPSes attached to
-a host computer through serial or USB ports, making all data on the
-location, course, and velocity available to be queried on TCP port
-2947 of the host computer. With gpsd, multiple GPS client applications
-(such as navigational and wardriving software) can share access to GPSes
-without contention or loss of data. Applications that presently use
-gpsd include Viking, foxtrotgps and Kismet.
-
-See README.build for some build options that might be useful.
-
-To enable automatic startup of gpsd at boot time, or when a GPS device
-is connected via USB, you need to do the following four steps:
-
-1. Copy the file /lib/udev/rules.d/97-gpsd.rules to /etc/udev/rules.d/
-
-2. Edit the file /etc/udev/rules.d/97-gpsd.rules and uncomment the line
-(or lines) beginning '#ATTRS' that corresponds to your GPS hardware.
-To avoid confusion with other USB serial devices that you might have,
-do not uncomment lines that do not correspond to your GPS hardware.
-But if you do not know which line to uncomment, and you do not have any
-other serial devices, you can uncomment them all :-)
-
-3. Make the file /etc/rc.d/rc.gpsd executable.
- chmod +x /etc/rc.d/rc.gpsd
-
-4. Add the following lines to /etc/rc.d/rc.local
- if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.gpsd ]; then
- /etc/rc.d/rc.gpsd start
- fi
-
-Configuration options may be set in the file /etc/rc.d/rc.gpsd.conf.
-The defaults will usually be adequate. However, if your GPS is on a
-real (non-USB) serial port -- for example, /dev/ttyS0 -- you should add
-/dev/ttyS0 to GPS_DEVICES in /etc/rc.d/rc.gpsd.conf.
