The problem is how do i turn on the GPS CF alone without using qpeGPS?
Are you running "cardctl resume" within Qtopia before you start gpsdrive in Debian? That should be all that you need to do. You can just put the command in your gpsdrive startup script if you've created a separate icon to start gpsdrive under Qtopia.
I told you to run "carctl enable" in an earlier post - that was incorrect, it should be "cardctl resume".

because my startup script is under Debian instead of Qtopia
so i tried "cru cardctl resume"
it doesn't seem to work for me
the LED is flashing
and "cat /dev/ttyS3" gives no data
do you know how they turn on the GPS CF under qpeGPS?
