Hi Thomas, I am not complaining (as Scott does) nor demanding help here and I also tried myself (I have the WMR300 since half a year, then spent some weeks to setup my Linux PC and I have been successful in installing weewx (which makles me kinda proud, as I have no experience at all before with such stuff). I ready through the documentation and tried to follow your docs to change the driver but I did not succeed at this point. Then I contacted Roland, see my first posting, he had the same problem and solved it by downgrading libusb. I am stuck here, could not find postings here that helped. Thats why I asked. I still look for possible solutions and hope mwall's upcoming reply will hopefully help.
I also wrote to let you know (as the creator/maintainer of the weewx package) to solve the problem at the roots as obviously everyone who has a WMR300 expieriences this problem... Just a friendly notification, as we here are all users of weewx (or will come here if in futuire are having the same issue). I am grateful for any help I can get. Salut, Markus -- Am Mittwoch, 6.
