  5. A bit more fiddling with the Toughpad today, I notice it has a WWAN module.

    During boot-up, an Ericsson F5521gw quickly shows itself and enumerates a network device and some serial ports (CDC ACM).

    But then, 5 seconds later, it deregisters itself. Quite why, I have no idea.

    Now this is a 3G era card, so in Australia, is about as useful as a screen door on a submarine for Internet access… HOWEVER, it does provide a GPS module.

    Now that *would* be handy.

    sven-seeberg.de/wp/?p=614 and tjansson.dk/2009/01/using-the- suggest it can be done…

    The problem is figuring out what makes it suddenly disappear. That second article points out a SIM card being needed, so I grab the old 3G era SIM from my old ZTE T83 phone, power the tablet off, stuff it in the SIM card slot, and power it back up.

    No dice. It again says peek-a-boo, enumerating then disappearing.

    I didn't keep the Windows 8.1 install, so I can't boot that to have another look.

    For now, I've just turned it off in the UEFI BIOS. At least it's not drawing unnecessary power … but if anyone has any ideas as to what I can shoot that might be telling the 3G module to disappear… I'm all ears.

  10. Do you have a recommendation for a #linux tool to navigate a heavy #truck (no "normal" car!) via #gps offline?
    I tried #pureMaps but miss the adjustment for car size parameters. GPS can be provided via #geoclue or #gpsd sufficiently.

    I just need map display and route planning - ideally an option which is aware of obstacles like low bridges and weight limits on particular roads and show alerts.

    In case it matters: I will be on german roads.

  11. Как извлечь данные из Linux с помощью C++ и Qt. На примере приложения с прогнозом погоды

    Привет, Хабр! Меня зовут Михаил, я backend-разработчик в SimbirSoft. Хочу поделиться с вами опытом получения различной информации в ОС Linux для использования в своих целях. Представьте, что нам нужно написать приложение «Погода», которое берёт из сети температуру, влажность и прочие параметры и отображает для пользователя. Было бы неплохо, чтобы оно само определяло, где мы находимся. Но как это сделать? Легко! На одном из проектов нам предстояло разработать десктопное приложение для портативного устройства и графический интерфейс к нему. При этом, кроме основной функциональности, предстояло выводить дополнительную информацию для пользователя: - навигационные данные (долготу, широту, высоту); - сведения о сетевом соединении (название, тип, уровень сигнала Wi-Fi); - заряд батареи; - информацию о хранилище (сколько занято/сколько всего). Стек используемых технологий – C++ в связке с библиотекой Qt (5.12). Задача казалась довольно простой. Но первое впечатление очень часто обманчиво. Особенно в тех случаях, когда вам не приходилось решать подобные задачи. Но обо всём по порядку. Рассмотрим вывод разных видов информации. 👉 Читать далее

  12. sigh. it has been 0️⃣ days since I wanted to rewrite #ntpd and #gpsd in #rust again.

    (ntpd on a raspberry pi is now crashing when i make it use the gps as a reference clock).

    Time to try out Chrony before I start screaming or writing code.

  13. Das offizielle #GPSD-Python-Modul ist übrigens kacke, nehmt es lieber nicht. Das Interface ist ziemlich unpythonig und schlecht dokumentiert. github.com/tfeldmann/gpsdclien sieht ein bisschen besser aus.

    (Hätte ich natürlich gern vorher gewusst. Aber weiß ich jetzt für wenn ich das alles demnächst™ mal ordentlich mache.)

  14. So, zusätzlich zum Location-Tracking für mein Telefon über die #Nextcloud-App #PhoneTrack hab ich das jetzt auch mal mit einem in #Python zusammengefrickelten #GPSD-Client auch meinem #Wohnmobil beigebracht.

    Viel Liebe für #dataclass und #deque.

  17. Looking for some guidance on configuring #chrony and #gpsd for time when in the field for #POTA or #SOTA.

    I'm running #AntiX #linux and have both a Delorme BT-20 and Ublox-8.

    I think I'm almost there but it's been very frustrating.
