Yes, I'm writing up my progress step-by-step mainly for my own benefit
but it may help others as well. So far I have got as far as getting NTP
to see the serial/USB data stream from the GPS, and the next step will
be to try and get the Kernel responding to a PPS interrupt. Someone has
done this already, but for an older version of the kernel to the one I
have. My notes are here:

I don't yet know whether the gpsd/kernel-PPS is the correct way to go,
whether you can even combine those two drivers.
