indi_gpsd and eqmod device snooping?

Hi,

I have a BU353 usb gps module connected on my Raspberry Pi. I've got it configured so that my system time is updated automatically via ntpd and gpsd. The module is working fine and I can connect to it using indi_gpsd in the indi control panel in Kstars. I'm having trouble getting it to update the site management location settings in eqmod though. What do I need to do? I tried setting the GPS snoop device to "GPSD" and various other strings, but my location stays at zero. Update source is set to "device" in Kstars.

Ah-a. Was so close with this :)

Turns out if I connect to indi_gpsd first and then to eqmod, it won't update the location unless I hit the Update button in the GPSD Main Controls. But if I connect to eqmod first and then to indi_gpsd it'll do it automatically.

Bottom line is it works :)
