Serial I/O problem with pywin32 ?

[Xavier]

Hi

I have resolved my problem by checking paquets.
It seems that it is a problem of the GPS (it's a very cheap GPS
Datalogger).

It seems it is the problem.
The policy seems to be :
 - ask the GPS for the data
 - touch wood
 - retry with the missing chunks
Even the official driver is doing this.

Not. The lost are randomized but it's chunks, ex :
300 consecutive bytes ok
30 consecutive bytes lost
250 bytes ok
40 bytes lost
800 bytes ok
50 bytes lost
