Hi,

please note that this is not a forum and not a user help lines, its a
bug tracker. Please fix your device and permissions issues first, with
the help from a debian-user mailinglist for example, and if you can send
a proper report, do so.

what is a "device port"?

permission issues are not a problem that gpsd can fix for you. Use udev
rules or whatever else is necessary.

Which is just fine, because what you are doing there is sad sad
nonsense. Learn to fix device permissions.

Thas a LTE modem or something similar, you'll probably have to switch it
into gps mode first. Nothing gpsd will do for you.


So basically:

1. fix your permission issues (using a pipe is not a fix!), maybe using
udev or whatever else is necessary.
2. learn how to put your modem into a working mode
3. trigger gpsd to read from you device.


If you then run into bugs, run gpsd in debug mode...
