The junction box? On my model, there's only analog signals present there.
Do you mean maybe the 'Duplex cable', which appears to be a splitter of
some sort that allows the addition of a temp/humidity sensor...

I also have no problems with xastir displaying the negative temps correctly.
That's good news.
Current status: I found a dual-port serial card in the junkbox. When I
lifted the cover to install it, I discovered that I have no 'legacy' ISA
slots on this motherboard, but it is equipped with a COMB header! I
rebooted and checked the BIOS setup, and lo and behold, there was indeed a
second serial port, disabled. I've got that enabled, and the machine
restarted. So now I'm searching for documentation on the pinout of that
header, so I can make up a proper cable. Anybody know what the Gigabyte
GA7-VKML standard is?
