In general, if you have a mysterious GPS thing, especially high volume
consumer gear, gpsd is a very good place to start.  They are focused on
position but it puts time into shared memory where ntpd can get it.

generic operation under Linux (Ubuntu)

gpsd is developed on Linux.  It works on FreeBSD and NetBSD and probably any
environment that supports POSIX.  I think there is a Windows version but I
don't know any details.
