[gpsd-dev] Possible error report

[Sanjeev Gupta]

This is based on a git snapshot as of 1400 UTC Thursday.  Build and run is on an up-to-date Ubuntu Precise.  GPS device is a new GR601-W (thanks, Gary).

(First tested with gpsd 3.4, which is the latest version on Precise.  All works well, device reported as Generic NMEA.  I then purged the gpsd and associated packages).

The scons build and install into /usr/local seems to have gone well.

When I run gpsd, all seems well.  See attached output at https://www.dropbox.com/s/bv4jlxfszu0ibh0/gpsd.txt .  gpsd was run as:
   gpsd -N /dev/ttyUSB0 -D 4

The gpsmon output, however, is strange.  I have a (approx 3MB) video capture of the screen output, at https://www.dropbox.com/s/5freiybtywawsch/out-2.ogv .  Note how information appears and disappears.  gpsmon status at the top does say "uBlox".  BTW, the values it reports on the left are also wrong.

What have I done wrong?
