I forgot... I did write a simple init script so that owfs gets started like other services in Gentoo. 
Here's my /etc/init.d/owfs script:
---------------------
#!/sbin/runscript

start() {
 ebegin "Starting 1-Wire server"
 /usr/local/bin/owserver -F -p 3001 -d /dev/ttyS0
 eend $?
 ebegin "Starting 1-Wire file system"
 /usr/local/bin/owfs -F -s 3001 -f f.i.c /mnt/owfs
 eend $?
}

stop() {
 ebegin "Stopping 1-Wire file system"
 umount /mnt/owfs
 eend $?
 ebegin "Stopping 1-Wire server"
 killall -TERM owserver
 eend $?
}
------------------

I think the "-F" on the owserver line doesn't do anything.  OWPerl still gets temperatures in Celcius.

On a whim I looked up OWFS in Gentoo's bugzilla and found this: 
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77174

It looks like someone put together an ebuild for OWFS a while ago, but nothing's happened since the beginning of this year.

Some hints from my installation...

Add "cli" to your use flags in /etc/make.conf so that PHP5 is build with the cli client. This is needed so that the configure script recognises that PHP is installed.

If you're not using coldstart to load modules at boot time (I wasn't) don't forget to modprobe both the fuse module and the usb modules (or add them to /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6). Without these you get a series of error messages, mostly suggesting that permission has been denied.

I start owfs on boot by adding the following lines to /etc/conf.d/local.start

/usr/local/bin/owserver -u -p 3001
/usr/local/bin/owfs -s 3001 --fuse_opt="\"-o allow_other\"" /mnt/1wire/

The FAQ suggests adding "user_allow_other" to /etc/fuse.conf but I achieve the same result using the --fuse_opt line above.

Thanks Ben!

 

By the way, can you provide any hints of Gentoo setup to be put in the website?

I symlinked it to /usr/local/lib/site-perl on my Gentoo system.  The install puts it in /opt/owfs/bin.

Has anyone else been having owperl installation problems? Where is the module supposed to be installed?
