That narrows it down a bit. I will try ripping out FUSE, and re-install it again. I tend to agree, there may be some old stuff around that needs to come out before the next install attempt.. Thanks Steve Paul Alfille wrote: On Tuesday 24 January 2006 09:10 pm, Stephen Lawrence wrote: I

I'm struggling. I know the parallel port adapter isn't cutting edge, but it might be useful for older computers. I've put the resources I've used so far in the wiki. http://owfs.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/ParallelAdapterStatus Basically I've tried using the ppdev interface, which uses ioct

I have been using the OWFS for over a year now, but a recent upgrade to FC4 to FC3 has given me some grief. I did the whole FUSE install as per the installation instructions. It does mention the FUSE kernel module is already present in FC4, but I did it anyway. Scanned the developer archiev

One more item... Regarding measuring sunlight, there's a nice "calibrated" reference cell that's cheap which might work for general purposes. We decided to go with a photodiode that has a wide lens and narrow bandwidth and with some circuitry that lends stability and an output calibrated in W/m2.

The DS2436 is a rather nifty chip in that it can measure its own VDD, which gives it the ability to act as a general purpose A/D device. However, the input is limited to between 2.4-10VDC when operated in non-parasitic mode (performance degrades below 2.4vdc). It is capable of running on parasiti
