Not sure how I missed the configure part, but I guess I did.  Ran that, and 
now I'm on 5.1.  And, miraculously, 5.1 works just fine.  Not sure why I 
had the driver problem with 5.0.1, but all's well that ends well.

One last question.  What's best practice with weewx.conf?  I kept my old 
(4.8) config file and it works.  I see a file called 
weewx.conf-4.8.0-5.1.0.  Is that a merged config file?  Should I just use 
that, or stick with my old config, or merge by hand?

Thanks for all the help!
