Introduction
GPS stands for Global Positioning System and is intended to allow one to knows its localization on Earth quite accuratly. See Wikipedia Article for more informations.
Tested hardware
GPS receiver are generally driven through a low speed RS232 bus.
Currenlty JulienB is experimenting the GPS receiver of the Aurore/Sequanux association. This autonomous receiver uses a standard NMEA GPS module that can be connected to the 3,3V RS232 port of your APF9328.
All you need to do is to get the GND and TX signals out of this module and connect is to your GND and RX signals of your APF:

Usage
- Configure Serial port 1 of your APF (4800 bauds 8N1):
# stty -F /dev/ttySMX1 4800
- Get the NMEA frames:
# cat /dev/ttySMX1
