-*** Support for Garmin USB binary in serial mode is currently broken
-
-We rewrote the Garmin USB binary support in a different mode to
-work around a bug in the Linux 2.16 tty layer. Unfortunately,
-some newer Garmin USB models seem to be prone to some kind of
-race condition or internal timing issue when the gpsd driver
-returns ACK responses too fast. (The lvcvideo project has seen
-a similar issue on their USB project, so it may be a problem with
-the USB controller chip rather than the GPS hardware or firmware.)
-
-Some users report the Garmin driver only works reliably at -D6 or up.
-Some users report no problems at all. Some delays have been inserted
-that may solve the problem, but more reports from the field will be
-needed before we can be reasonably sure it has been solved.
-
-The new driver also requires a tool to switch between binary and NMEA
-modes. There is experimental untested code to do this via gpsctl, but
-it could do anything including make bats fly out of your nose.
-
-The new Garmin driver and gpsctl should be much more solid in the next
-point release.
