(The owfs version shipped with Jessie has a broken --w1 when working with kernel-3.16 as shipped with Jessie.) Testing(Stretch) has owfs-3.1p1. You can use the owfs packages from the Raspbian testing repository. Edit (or create) your /etc/apt/preferences to contain: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Package: * Pin: release o=Raspbian,a=stable Pin-Priority: 500 Package: * Pin: release o=Raspbian,a=testing Pin-Priority: 300 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is important so you keep stable (Jessie) for all packages but the ones explicitly taken from testing (Stretch). Then, add a line -------------------------------------------------------------------------- deb http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian/ testing main contrib non-free rpi -------------------------------------------------------------------------- to your /etc/apt/sources.list to get access to the Raspbian testing repository. Do an $ sudo apt-get update to read the package metadata, then check $ sudo apt-cache policy whether the testing repo is there with priority 300. Then $ sudo apt-get update -t testing owserver ow-shell That should install all you need, including the startup files and systemd units. Note you have to edit /etc/owfs.conf again to contain (this and only this) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- !server: server = localhost:4304 server: w1 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Restart the owserver service after that.
