           Summary: Request for A-GPS functionality and information about
                    nvd_data file format
           Product: System software
           Version: 4.0
          Platform: N810
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Low
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: carlos at maemo.org
        ReportedBy: S.G.Pickering at bath.ac.uk
         QAContact: hafqa at maemo.org

SOFTWARE VERSION: OS2008

The N810 does not appear to use the AGPS functionality that is built into the
Ti NaviLink GPS5300 GPS chip.

Is A-GPS functionality planned for a future software release?

If not, or if it's undecided, could the format of the /var/lib/gps/nvd_data
data file be released as I presume this holds the data used by the GPS chipset
to enable warm-starts. If we could write to this file to provide up-to-date
almanac and ephemeris data (by whatever means) we should hopefully be able to
produce quicker fixes.
