Hi Juanito,
Thanks for your interest and assistance.
| Quote | | What version of dsl are you using? |
I am playing with two DSL versions. I can get each to do part of what I want, but so far haven't succeeded in getting either to do it all. My preference is to concentrate on making the most up to date DSL version work for me rather than putting time into the older one.
The older DSL version, is from the OWFS download site. It is packaged to include working OWFS & FUSE. It is DSL v1.4 circa Q3 of 2005, according to its source forge 'release notes' page. Its development seems frozen in time. (Its author acknowledged its age in an otherwise dismissive email and doesn't seem to be working on it actively.)
The other version of DSL is the latest downloadable version from the mirrors. It is 2.4.5.iso.
The former runs OWFS & FUSE just fine but won't run curl.
The latter runs CURL fine but OWFS is impaired by the lack of FUSE interface to the local file system. (at least, I infer it to be a FUSE issue) Without the local filesystem access, I can't readily get the data from my 1wire devices to use in my CURL interface to the device outlined in my other post about emmulation of HTML POST methods.
What I am after doing is reading the sensors and then using CURL to load the readings into a radio linked remote display via the device as outlined in my other post.

Yes, on both versions 'lsmod' reports FUSE as being present but on the older OWFS version of DSL it reports "in use by 2" and on the more recent version it reports "used by 0 (unused)".
(On the up to date DSL version, I did a fresh boot and an lsmod before and after issuing the modprobe fuse command. It is only present afterwards)
I read somewhere that there was a change, from one FUSE version to another, to where its libraries are stored. Could that have any bearing on my issue?
Thanks again for your interest and assistance.
Best regards,
Brian H.
