<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Many people are aware of the 1wire devices made by
dallas semiconductors for many useful purposes.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It is possible to read temperature etc, from the 1
wire devices and graph them on your openwrt router using owfs and temploggerd
but this loses data if the power is dropped etc as the router holds the
data.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Not many people are aware that you can have your
weather data gathered on the openwrt and uploaded to the weather underground <A
href="http://www.wunderground.net">www.wunderground.net</A> </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have managed to package up the oww package into a
ipk for the both serial and usb devices and have posted it to <A
href="http://www.webrentit.co/oww/packages">www.webrentit.co/oww/packages</A>
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The oww package was chosen because it has addons
like pc screensaver that show weather , a remote client app that allows you to
look ay the live data etc. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>A live example is accessible at </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>(double click anywhere on the weather data to look
at the current and historical data)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>the package will install lthe program and a startup
script in the /etc/init.d/S90oww , create a /usr/etc/oww folder with a template
structure that you can edit including a sample uploading config.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>As I have no usb capable router at present, Is is
possible for someone to load the package and let me know if the usb drivers
work? I have verified it on a FC6 box using a serial-usb adaptor as /dev/ttyUSB0
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>My thought was to have this as part of the splash
page on the Melbourne Wireless hotspot project, as it would be freely available
and encourage people to access the hotspot.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any takers ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks in advance,</FONT></DIV>
