I haven't installed a Davis, but a Lacrosse station which should be a similar setup (MySQL, separate shim program like the Davis, etc) is on my TODO list. If you have the Davis talking to the weather program and the MySQL database, then you should be able to start the shim program (from the "Davis" directory that you compiled) and then create a "Networked WX" interface in Xastir to talk to it. I _believe_ it works something like this: *) Meteo grabs data from the weather station and sends it to the database. *) The Davis shim program grabs the data from the database and makes it available at a socket. *) Xastir connects to that socket to get the weather data. The Lacross support works in a similar manner. If the docs in the Davis directory are not complete, let us know what's missing and we'll get that fixed. -- Curt, WE7U. archer at eskimo dot com http://www.eskimo.com/~archer Lotto: A tax on people who are bad at math. - unknown Windows: Microsoft's tax on computer illiterates. - WE7U.
