2/ can you advise me some middle-range clocks (several hundred euros
max.) working on Linux, as well as pros and cons regarding the
technology (GPS, radio...) ?


You don't say where you are in the world. However the NNTP posting IP
address suggests France, and you mention Euros.


You're right, I'm in France, but the servers might be everywhere in the
world, that's why I can't use a radio receiver as a "general" solution,
and I'm rather looking at GPS receivers.


The Garmin GPS18LVC is available for something like $85 US. An Oncore M12 timing receiver with evaluation circuit board, is available from http://www.synergy-gps.com/ for around $200 US. The Oncore used to be made by Motorola; they discontinued it and it is now made by another manufacturer. I have an Oncore and have found that it works very well. More expensive receivers are available with metal cases, switches, blinking lights etc. They may be worth the extra cost; the evaluation board I bought doesn't even have holes that would permit it to be mounted in a box.

Just be certain that the receivers you buy are designed for timing service rather than navigation and have a Pulse per Second (PPS) output.
