    Tried that too, not working. But I now see why you asked that my output when starting PiGatewaySerial shows :

    CE Pin           = Custom GPIO25
    

    So that needs to be harware pin 22

    This picture helped a lot and makes now that I am 100% sure my Rpi is hooked up correctly.

    GPIO B+.jpg

    :s: must be overseeing something realy simple / stupid .. :/s:

    Guess it must be the Arduino Mega causing the issue, back to my drawingboard .. will keep you posted

    [edit]

    Just found an interesting SPI reference picture for my Arduino Mega
    Mega2560_R3_Label-small-v2 (2).png

    My Pinout seems to be ok on the SPI side, just need to check CE / SE in regard to the scketch/libraries I am using.

    Radio 1 GND Paars Arduino GND
    Radio 2 3v3 Blauw Arduino 3,3v
    Radio 3 CE Groen Arduino 48
    Radio 4 CS Geel Arduino 49
    Radio 5 SCK Oranje Arduino 52
    Radio 6 MOSI Rood Arduino 51
    Radio 7 MISO Bruin Arduino 50

      YEAH !
      It works !! thanks for pointing me in the right direction !
      Arduino needed the right scketch uploade (I messed so much with it I needed to go back which I just did)

      As a reference for all who are trying to get this to work.

      Use this pinout for the RPI B+
      Radio 1 grijs GND Rpi 25
      Radio 2 paars 3v3 Rpi 17
      Radio 3 blauw CE Rpi 22
      Radio 4 groen CS Rpi 24
      Radio 5 Geel SCK Rpi 23
      Radio 6 oranje MOSI Rpi 19
      Radio 7 Rood MISO Rpi 21

      Arduino Mega
      Radio 1 GND Paars Arduino GND
      Radio 2 3v3 Blauw Arduino 3,3v
      Radio 3 CE Groen Arduino 48
      Radio 4 CS Geel Arduino 49
      Radio 5 SCK Oranje Arduino 52
      Radio 6 MOSI Rood Arduino 51
      Radio 7 MISO Bruin Arduino 50

      I used the Libs mentioned in the post above by Vladut Grecu :
      https://github.com/mysensors/Raspberry

      I used this Temperature sketch :
      http://www.mysensors.org/build/temp

      Before I did got the Temp sketch operational I needed to clear my EEprom :
      http://arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/EEPROMClear

      /*
       * EEPROM Clear
       *
       * Sets all of the bytes of the EEPROM to 0.
       * This example code is in the public domain.
      
       */
      
      #include <EEPROM.h>
      
      void setup()
      {
        // write a 0 to all 512 bytes of the EEPROM
        for (int i = 0; i < 512; i++)
          EEPROM.write(i, 0);
         
        // turn the LED on when we're done
        digitalWrite(13, HIGH);
      }
      
      void loop()
      {
      }
      

      Than we need to edit the sketch a bit due to the fact that the Rpi gateway DOES NOT hand out the Node ID's automaticly, and the Sketch is not Arduino Mega compatible so :

      Set the Node ID manualy add

      gw.begin(NULL,10,false);
      

      Make sure the sketch is compatible with the Arduino MEGA pins (as published abover here)
      Change Line 12 in the sketch :

      MySensor gw;
      

      into

      MySensor gw(48,49)
      

      Than compile and hook everything up and upload the compiled sketch and start the Rpi (SPI enabled) and start
      ./PiGatewaySerial

      Output should show on your Pi when you
      Cat /dev/ttyMySensorsGateway

      Big Thank you to @Vladut-Grecu !

          I had it finally working on my Pi2, but its very unstable. sometimes weird values, crashes and fails.

          switched to a usb serial arduino and that works great.

            The original code on github is a bit buggy. Thats right. But the actual code after Holger has reworked it is running well.
            I am using it for nearly a month now. Nothing has crashed after Holger has looked after the reason why.

            Currently I am happy with the stability.

              @Andreas-Maurer Could you tell me which controller you are using for your setup ?

              Thanks !

                I am using fhem on the same PI. connected over the pseudo serial port.

                  What is the CPU usage of PiGatewaySerial when you look at top? Mine is using 97%.

                      Thanks.. Looked again today and it has calmed down.. Maybe it's just at start-up before there are any messages received or maybe something reading the Serial Port.
