Re: [weewx-user] Re: FineOffsetUSB lockup - Possible solution for unattended reset
Hello, The reason this does not work is because the Pi does not actually cut the power from the USB port, it cuts the data signal. You can only cut the power from all USB ports including the Ethernet port. This is the way exactly as I found it elsewhere: To shut off power on USB ports (this shuts power on ethernet as well): echo '1-1' |sudo tee /sys/bus/usb/drivers/usb/unbind To turn power back on echo '1-1' |sudo tee /sys/bus/usb/drivers/usb/bind Network functions and USB drivers appear to recover just fine after turning power back on.

[weewx-user] Re: weewx operating systems
Hi Gary, That was quite informative, thanks :) You understood me well, I meant to say that since weewx can get the OS uptime and this is published on the map, it should easily also obtain the OS version. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.

[weewx-user] weewx operating systems
Hi, Not sure exactly what you mean by 'report the OS or only the uptime'? WeeWX reports the time since weeWX was started through tag $station.uptime. The value is calculated as the number of elapsed seconds since a timestamp that is recorded during weeWX startup. As long as the system clock works $station.uptime should work fine under Solaris. The tag $station.os_uptime is somewhat more complex. First weeWX assumes the OS is Linux based and tries to get the number of seconds the OS has been up from file /proc/uptime. If this results in an error weeWX assumes this is a Mac and tries to get the OS uptime in seconds using Quartz.QuartzCore.CACurrentMediaTime(). If this throws an error weeWX assumes the OS is FreeBSD and uses ctypes.util.find_library() to obtain the OS uptime in seconds. If this fails $station.os_uptime is set to None. I know little of Solaris, but if it does not fit one of the three cases above $station.os_uptime will be None. Or have I completely misunderstood your question/musing?
