I general, yes. There is a difference between the DS9097 and the DS9097U (blame Maxim for that). One is a passive device that depends on the exact serial pulses to synthesize 1-wire pulses, the other (the 9097U) uses a IC called the DS2480B to manage the 1-wire communication. If you have a passive 9097 adapter, try --8bit. Some of the serial devices can't create 6-bit communication. That might be the case withthe USB convertor. You are using /dev/ttyUSB1. I assume you got that from dmesg output. The allocation can change each time and it's often not a symlink. The permissions might not be applied to the actual device. Can you try your code as root? sudo /opt/owfs/bin/.... Paul Alfille > > OS is Ubuntu 8.10. My USB Adaptor DS9490R works and is set as the > owserver 1wire adapter. All my programs and web page work.
