Replying to my own message.

Next problem:

# tests/test_nmea2000 test/nmea2000/logfile_20140914_365495765_can.log
tests/test_nmea2000: line 93: tests/gpsd: No such file or directory
tests/test_nmea2000: line 97: tests/gpspipe: No such file or directory

[hangs...]

I hacked the script to jsut use system gpsd and gpspipe, not a real
solution, but let me see results.  Eventually.  Tokk almost 4 mins to
run, I thgouht it has crashed.

Not too bad, but really out of data.  The .chk file has the old
data lengths.  So instead of:

< $GPGBS,165638,7.29,M,8.30,M,24.15,M*04

We now have:

$GPGBS,165638.00,7.287,8.293,24.150,,,,*76

In pretty much every pseudo NMEA and JSON message.  Easy to fix.

TPV also has some new values, So instead of:

< 
{"class":"TPV","device":"nmea2000://vcan0","mode":3,"time":"2014-09-14T16:56:38.000Z","ept":0.005,"lat":37.922036200,"lon":23.016931900,"alt":9.813,"epx":7.286,"epy":8.304,"epv":24.150,"track":282.2390,"speed":0.100,"climb":0.000,"eps":16.61,"epc":48.30}

Now have also have eph, sep, etc::

{"class":"TPV","device":"nmea2000://vcan0:17","mode":3,"time":"2014-09-14T16:56:38.000Z","ept":0.005,"lat":37.922036200,"lon":23.016931900,"altHAE":44.8129,"altMSL":7.9774,"alt":7.9774,"epx":7.287,"epy":8.293,"epv":24.150,"track":282.2390,"magtrack":4.5651,"magvar":4.6,"speed":0.100,"climb":0.000,"eps":8.29,"epc":24.15,"geoidSep":35.000,"eph":13.870,"sep":24.480}

Again, easy to fix, just update the .chk file.

But I dont not understand why the path is sometimes this:

< 
{"class":"TPV","device":"nmea2000://vcan0","mode":3,"time":"2014-09-14T16:56:38.000Z"

And semetimes this:

{"class":"TPV","device":"nmea2000://vcan0:17","mode":3,"time":"2014-09-14T16:56:38.000Z"

Is the :17 a device address of some sort?  Shouldn't it always be there?
Would that be the way to tell two GPS on the bus apart?

Yes, the first device seen on the n2k bus get the name "[V]CAN0" without the address, all other with the device address.
