This looks pretty much right.
Could you run
/usr/sbin/gpsd -D 2 -N -F /var/run/gpsd.sock -P /var/run/gpsd.pid
on the console and see if gpsd starts properly - it should stay in the the
foreground and produce a lot of debug output.
If that works well - could the problem reside in usplash? Seems you're using
that, and I remember that it had a similar bug in Debian. Not exactly sure any
more, though.
