Tips and questions relating to the GPS modules from SFE

Hiya,

Shiny new toys arived in the mail today. However, I don't seem to be able to get any data out of the gps and usb eval board.

The 406 seems to be blinking away merrily so I'm assuming it's got a fix. In linux I can see the device but get no data, so I tried with sirfdemo and it does not show any data either. I've tried syncronize protocol and baud rate, as well as what I thought were the default settings.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what I might be missing?

Thanks.
