Re: [gpsd-users] Is GPSD receiving PPS?

This be good info, (and the reason I lurk on these forums).

Hello all,

Since the thread is already hi-jacked & about Raspberry Pi’s…

The issues that Bo is having are linux distribution related (Rasbian) and not the hardware platform.

I run Gentoo on 14 x Raspberry Pi’s (1st Gen B to current Raspberry Pi 3, including Zero).  With Gentoo’s portage, GPSd 3.15 is the latest.  Both this version & the current head compile, install and work fine.  I’m not suggesting everyone should run Gentoo - it’s not the easiest Linux to manage.

I just wanted to chime in that the challenges are not hardware platform issues - they are related to the Linux distribution for the Raspberry Pi that Bo is using, which is a little slow to update…

Thanks,
Frank
