Description:   Opened: 2003-12-28 10:20 0000
"gpsd" daemon in the gpsdrive program doesn't allow serial speeds higher than
38400.  I wrote a small patch to fix that (attached
gpsd.higher_serial_speeds.patch) and e-mailed it to the gpsdrive author and he
approved it into his CVS, so it will be in the upcoming release.

I'm a gentoo user though and like to run programs from portage instead of
compiling it manually, so I created gpsdrive-2.04-r1.ebuild which utilizes my
patch.

While I was creating that I noticed the latest stable is 2.05, so I also
created gpsdrive-2.05.ebuild

Both gpsdrive-2.04-r1.ebuild and gpsdrive-2.05.ebuild use my patch and expect
it to be in the "files" directory.  When Fritz releases the upcoming gpsdrive
stable (2.06?) it will not require the patch since it will be part of his tree.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. run `gpsd -p /dev/usb/tts/0 -s 115200 -K`
2. Configure your GPS device to run at baud rate 115200

Actual Results:  
gpsd can not communicate with the GPS device

Expected Results:  
Communicated with the GPS device, receive and show the NMAE date

The attached patch fixed the problem by fixing gpsd.c to accept higher baud
rates

A new ebuild of the current port is made (2.04-r1) to use the patch.

A new ebuild of the newest stable (2.05( is made, also uses the patch.

Okay, i've added in both of these with the patches. Thanks for the info.
Marking test-request for now.

Closing due to lack of feedback.
