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.
