Hello! Thank you Jan Kanziora for bringing that to my attention. As it happens that's next. I'm used to using an FT232 based adapter on this laptop for the odd One-Wire application, and also under Linux on a different system via OWFS.
I figure if it gets to the point where this idea works, I'll take the time to study how its port is configured, remember that's the console, and everything gets shown there so it gets decidedly complicated. And parenthetically my (older) sister who bought me the widget as part of a starter kit for my birthday two years ago, badgered me something awful over the weekend about not doing anything special with it. So I figured I'd start here, and thence move on to being available via the HDMI port on its side. Right now he's working headless. My HDTV set only has two HDMI connectors, one for the Cable TV box and another for the odd blue-ray player the vendors thought..... Which is why I ended the earlier one regarding photos and stuff. Right now it'll be the top favorite around here, switches and temperature of the room, if the system does end up using the GPIO port for serial to One Wire via a MAX232 as you suggested, it will be other stuff including room temperature. For that it will be a second device in a nice box..... Keep those good ideas coming please Jan. And next time you're visiting NYC I owe you lunch in a very special deli. ----- Gregg C Levine gregg.drw...@gmail.com "This signature fought the Time Wars, time and again."
