Dear All,
I was looking for a possibility to log how many satellites are available/used
over a time period.
Reading the man page for „gpssnmp“ says it should be possible. But it doesn’t
work so easy.
# gpssnmp -g .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.1.32
gpssnmp: ERROR: connection failed
What are the prerequisites to run this tool ?
I compiled the source code version 3.24.1~dev (revision
release-3.24-138-g5a53fe309)
on Debian 11 bulsseye.
Kind regards
Hans
Hans,
You need the most recent version of gpsd, try a "pull" and compile again:
sudo su
cd gpsd
sudo git pull origin master --rebase
scons --config=force && scons install
exit (out of superuser mode)
Gary recently fixed an error causing this. My original notes are here:

I've since extended my work to return the precision variables returned from the
GPS receiver.
Cheers,
David
