      Thanks a lot for your fast answer.
      I'll try to re-install on Linux and let you know.

      Maybe I will re install lineageos or flash a stock Rom to see if GPS is still working.

      I installed lineageos 17.1 with open_Gapps pico (minimum).
      The phone is quite reactive.
      =>GPS OK on Sygic offline navigation app.
      So I'm not sure I can find the energy for, once again, install UT.
      I managed to swipe the system partition (!) and was unable to flash a stock rom. Too many "how to" on internet made me confused.
      My phone is still alive, fortunately, and I think it's safer to keep it as it is now, with this light Android os.
      Another time, I hope.
      Thanks a lot for your help guys.
      Long live to Ubunbtu Touch.

      I already restarted the phone and GPS is on.
      As no GPS interface is found, no app can get it !

      Hi, everybody.
      Thanks to developpers for the good job.
      I just set my Redmi Note 7 under Ubuntu Touch.
      Feel good BUT :
      GPS not working ! command test_gps said :
      "gps interface not found :("
      I used the UBPorts installer on Windows 10.
      Maybe should I do it again under Linux Mint ???
      I made a system update through "Development channel" but nothing new ! As I can see.
      Any idea of how to solve this ?
      Have a good day.
