I purchased a Silvercrest GPS device from Lidl recently, but the software that came with it is a tad “underpowered” to say the very least. I am attempting to get at the raw data on the device myself to write something a little more reliable about it, but i’m not too sure where to start to get access to the device. As far as I can see it’s a rebranded targa device but can’t find any more information on the web.
When I plug it in i get the following from dmesg, I hope someone can point me in the right direction as to how to interact with this thing.
