OK, Paul, as I told Christian before:
This is precisely how my devices are connected:
PC's DB9M (PC's standard 9-pin male) <---> DB9F-to-DB25M (a standard 9-pin
to 25-pin converter) <---> DS9097E (Maxim's 25 pin Serial Adapter with a
RJ11 port) <---> RJ11 cable <---> DS2781K (Maxim's voltage sensor).
Here are other things you asked:
1. Wrong device name:
Nope ... /dev/ttyS0 is the only serial file descriptor that works for me
... I tested with my own serial communication codes for grabbing and
transferring some data over it .... also owfs only recognizes /dev/ttyS0 ...
otherwise it gave an error: "Could not detect DS9097 (passive) ...."
2. Wrong device permission:
# id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root)
# ls -al /dev/ttyS0
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 4, 64 2007-09-15 21:17 /dev/ttyS0
3. Wiring/voltage problem
# I can sense 7.2 battery voltage through Windows (which works on Maxim's
USB chip with its Windows driver).
4. My PC's serial port config:
/dev/ttyS0, Line 0, UART: 16650, Port: 0x03f8, IRQ: 4
Baud_base: 9600, close_delay: 50, divisor: 0
closing_wait: 3000
Flags: spd_normal skip_test
5. When I can with debug level, it shows this:
> owfs --error_level=9 --foreground -d /dev/ttyS0 /mnt/1wire
CONNECT: fuse mount point: /mnt/1wire/
CALL: PARSENAME path=[]
CONNECT: Cannot detect DS2480 or LINK interface on /dev/ttyS0.

DEBUG: COM_close: restore

unique: 1, opcode: INIT (26), nodeid: 0, insize: 56

max_readahead=0x00020000
INIT: 7.8

max_readahead=0x00020000
max_write=0x00020000
unique: 1, error: 0 (Success), outsize: 40
Don't know why "CONNECT: Cannot detect DS2480 or LINK interface on
/dev/ttyS0" is appearing.
Now, inside /mnt/1wire, although I can see the owfs file system being
mounted, NO temp/voltage/current info is pulled out from /dev/ttyS0 (as I
said, even cat /dev/ttyS0 is not showing any info).
Any suggestion?
