The drivers for the console cable were already in the Raspian distribution on the R-Pi.
I installed the gpsd (daemon) software as directed in the above tutorial.
Documentation for gpsd is here:
http://gpsd.berlios.de/client-howto.html
Sample C code is:Â gpxlogger.c and cgps.c – which can be found in tkzic/rpi/gpsd 3.7/
(todo – write sample code and add to telemetry tracker)
