I personally do darcs get http://iki.fi/lindi/darcs/ubx cd ubx ./set-nmea.py off ./set-periodic-logging.py off ./set-fixnowmode.py on to turn the power saving mode on and then use ./set-fixnowmode.py off ./set-nmea.py on ./set-periodic-logging.py on to return to normal mode. If you want to suspend you also need to say om gps keep-on-in-suspend 1 to make sure that the GPS stays on during suspend. NOTE: This works only if you make sure that no other process is using /dev/gps (om is part of omhacks which you can get from debian or SHR (I think) or http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-fso/omhacks.git;a=summary Note that I added 2.6.32 support just yesterday to iki.fi/lindi/git/omhacks and it hasn't been propagated yet to SHR or debian.) -Timo _______________________________________________ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
