Well, the humidity sensor DOES work. At least in my set up. So let's
figure out what the differences are.

1. Do you know the OWFS version you are running? -V on the command
line will show this.
2. Which humidity sensor are you using? I know it's DS2438-based, but
the actual humidity sensor can one of several chips.
3. I doubt the library versions (except libow) matter, if you can read
temperatures.
