Are you using ogpsd (fso-framework) or gpsd? I'm using the latter and
gps usually works. Some ideas:

/etc/frameworkd.conf:
[ogpsd]                                                                                                       
disable = 0                                                                                                   

deanna:~# dpkg -l gpsd
[..]
ii  gpsd                  2.90.1~svn6819-1+b1   Global Positioning System - daemon

Is the gps chip turned on?
deanna:~# om gps power
1
("om gps power 1" to turn it on)

HTH,
