Hi friends,

instead in my Gentoo Linux Box the sensor put only -60.000* or
58.876*...

Can you help me? :\

Thanks

I haven't built the circuit or looked very closely at the
software, so this is just a wild guess. Run at the
command prompt:
$ stty -F /dev/ttyS0 -hupcl
before running the thermometer software. (Modify for the serial
port you are using.)

I'd appreciate hearing if this solves the problem.
