Hi,

I have the Ubuntu M10 (running 10.1) for a week now and successfully
used GPS with uNav, SensorStatus and Here Maps.

Since yesterday I encounter the following error:

When I start one of the GPS apps the GPS symbol in the indicator menu
starts blinking (frequency: once per second). When I check the app
permissions I see that the list with apps which have requested GPS
access is empty.
When I reboot the M10 the blinking stops and the list with apps which
requested GPS access is there again.
When the GPS indicator symbol is blinking (because I launched
SensorStatus) and then I start uNav, uNav gives the following error message:
    "GPS Denied"
    "Error reading the GPS status"
    "Please review your device settings"
When I go to device settings I see the following:
- Location Settings: GPS and anoymised Wi-Fi (HERE)
- Battery Settings: GPS enabled
- Secury & privacy -> Apps Permissions -> Location:0

The only way to make the GPS indicator symbol stop blinking is to switch
off GPS location detection.

Is this a known bug?
If not, what can I do to provide you with more information?

Best regards,

Stefan Kamps
