[LinuxPPS] Newbie alert!

[Neal Probert]

Just joined up!  The website doesn't seem to have all the information 
I'm looking for.

Is LinuxPPS being merged into the Linux kernel?  A little googling 
around tells me it is part of the 2.6.24 kernel now.

Is there a hardware hack and schematic for bringing in the PPS pulse 
from a serial GPS device to the DCD pin?  Would be nice to start seeing 
GPS on Mini-PCI or Mini-PCIe form factor.

Btw, I work for a major automotive company doing some Telematics R & 
D.   The LinuxPPS is integral to the Dedicated Short Range 
Communications (DSRC) radio synchronization used by US-DOT's VII project.

A crucial issue is that we also need to start seeing GPS devices that 
give us better than 1m resolution with corrections.

Thanks!
