issues when using GPSD - Didier B - 2023-10-12 Why use GPSD : I appreciate a lot GPSD clients : xgps and cgps - ls and also the NMEA Debug window. Consequently I use the following connections : 1- Network/Input/GPSD/localhost/2947/priority = 0 (priority manually set to 0 to avoid any rerouting in Signal K ...) 2- Network/Input/Signal K/localhost/3000/priority = 1 (automatically created by Serial when connecting the GPS to GPSD) It works fine, well, for most of he system startups.  But sometimes it fails: no GPS signal, and no green line in signal K ! In this case (failure  ) one of the following actions restore the situation : launch any of the GPSD clients (xgps) or Restart Signal K, or in Serial delete connection to GPSD and recreate it, (which includes a Signal K restart)   The issue seems to lie in the startup of GPSD either not happening, or not properly detected by the Pi ... Anyway, it looks like a But ,isn't it  BTW I noticed that surprisingly going from French to English language in OpenCPN has a big impact on the ... font Size (give it a try !)! RE: OP 3.0 Touch 64b : no more issues when using GPSD ... - Didier B - 2023-10-23 Testing OP 3.0, the 64b Touch flavour, and it appears to work like a Swiss made watch ! Perfect stability with signal K 2.1.0, issues showing in OP 2.9 regarding connection SK to GPSD seems to have vanished !  Pure happiness ! I also gave a try to SK 2.3.0, and came back rapidito to 2.1.0 by re-installing from official 64 b Touch image  !!! As is, it is just perfect. The touch screen is really usable, even with a tiny 7" touch screen ! BTW,  what is the gesture to emulate a right click ? I had stopped using the touch function, but I want to try again !
