Re: GPS - Can't get a fix

I'm not convinced about the human body thing. I have tried sitting in the middle of a park with my N810 on the grass and also with it sitting on a bench and still had to wait 20 minutes.

Re: GPS - Can't get a fix

There do seem to be some locations that are particularly bad and for no apparent reason. One really bad spot for me is on and around the Millenium Bridge over the Thames. I have tried numerous...

Flood ping

Has anyone worked out how to install iputils-ping instead of the Busybox one? Busybox's ping doesn't provide the flood ping (-f) option and I really could do with it to test my network.

ping -f

Hi

I could really do with a version of ping that allows me to ping faster than once a second. The version in Busybox doesn't seem to support the 'ping -f' command, which would have been ideal.

Re: Time-to-First-Fix with N810 GPS

if you want a raw signal, you can query the ethernet port on of the more modern analysers (e.g. R&S FSU, FSQ or one of the Agilents). That will give you I/Q directly. I prefer the FSQ as you can...

Re: Time-to-First-Fix with N810 GPS

I was just looking for any obvious stuff above the noise floor with a preamp on, not demodulating the signal. This was just in case we were inadvertently jamming ourselves :-)

Re: Time-to-First-Fix with N810 GPS

By the way, I have tried putting a good quality spectrum analyser on the GPS band to check for interference - just in case. It was completely clear.

Also, the signals are good and strong looking...

Re: Time-to-First-Fix with N810 GPS

No - I tried that first and it didn't work at all. It looks as though gpsd needs the contents of a good nvd_data. Maybe if you wait for days gpsd will work it out for itself, but Ive not tried that.

Thanks for that. if I try apt-get install libncurses or apt-get install libcurses inside Scratchbox it says it can't find those packages.

Re: The Kismet Thread

I've been running the nokismet build for some time now with no problem - I've logged well over 1000 hours, so I'm pretty happy with that build on the N810.

Re: EasyCrypt Frontend for TrueCrypt

I've already put the insmods in a startup script and that works fine.

Re: EasyCrypt Frontend for TrueCrypt

Hi

I've solved the problem :-)
