Cool. Any reason you are not using git head? We have been remiss
in not getting 3.17 out the door and there are many improvement in
git head.

Yup.

Must be, as it works for others. 15 mins is not long enough for a
GPS that has been off or has been moved any distance. Do not even
bother looking at results for less than 30 mins after power on and first
sat seen. It can take 30 mins to download the almanac and ephmeris,
especially for older GPS like the Garmin's.
Also, is the GPS outside with a good sky view? The Garmin does not work
indoors.

Actually, the screen shots better than your cut/paste, which got mangled
by being included in your email. Best to ake them attachments.

That should be enough. Look at at dmesg when you boot with the Garmin USB
attached, it should show the device sdetected and use.
You'll also have to figure out how to keep the kernel from going to
sleep.
