The Pi 3 is a powerful little guy, really. I've got one running BitTorrent Sync as a personal cloud, a Minecraft server, an RTLSDR that recieves data from a weather station and posts it to wunderground, Samba to share a 2TB drive attached to USB over my network, an openvpn server, a TOR wifi access point, and nginx (instead of Apache) all at the same time. That said, rather than fight with drivers, I'd suggest it will probably be easier to use a 3 wire temp sensor. They can be had for a buck or two, and plug into the I/O pins on the pi easily enough. Adafruit has sample code for most/all the sensors they sell, so that might be a good start. -- James Bertelson [email protected] :wq _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
