I have DS18B20 sensors running, but not on Mageia - my sensors are 
connected to an AVR microprocessors (which is controlled by a C 
programme, downloaded from my Mageia PC).

I have doubts whether it is possible to reliably operate 1-wire devices 
directly connected to a PC that is simultaneously used to do &quot;ordinary 
stuff&quot;: the 1-wire protocol has quite strict bit-timing requirements 
(the pin on the I/O port on your PC which drives the 1-wire bus must 
create pulses with well-defined lengths and intervals), not evident to 
implement on a time-shared PC - could also have negative impact on non 
real-time applications that run on the PC. You might need to more or 
less dedicate your PC to run your 1-wire application.

In case you cannot make it work directly on Mageia, the microprocessor 
approach is certainly a valid (even better?) alternative since the 
microprocessor can print the result to a serial port and hence to a PC.

In case this approach is of interest to you, we should discuss this by 
PM (no problem to let you have my hard- and software)
