@yveaux indeed. It seems there is always some other thing to do first. Moving my desk was part of a greater reorganisation of desks and rooms. I set myself deadlines to be able to advance a little (next one is 16 May: lasercutting boxes at the FabLab), but still progress is slow.
The fact that my switch to version 2.2.0 on sensors and on ethernetgateway on Raspberry is not going well, also slows down progress. Step by step ...

Well, if you need any help or have suggestions how to make the transition more smooth, you know where to find us!
Good to have you back on the forum though :+1:

@yveaux I'm not sure the issues is with the MySensors part. The gateway listens, but presenting a new node crashes Domoticz. After reboot I do see the new sensor and can receive and show updates, but the "new node" part is what bugs me now (I made a new node with atmega1284p which I want to add to my network)
I am using the beta version of the gateway & Domoticz -

Why are you using a beta version? I thought 2.2.0 was in stable release?

@dbemowsk like to push my luck I guess ;-)
It seems the latest Domoticz beta (9379 build date 28.04.18-09:18:07) has a problem with presentation of new sensors. So I will have to sweat it until they fix that.
I compiled the gateway on Raspberry also with the beta version (after trying the stable version first), as it was mentioned that this could fix communication errors. No luck so far.
Bu this discussion of my problem should be on another forum branch. -
@gohan
Indeed, it is a Domoticz beta issue -
As I have updated my workshop, so I no longer sit at my family kitchen table, but instead have a man-cave, behind a sliding-door closet, next to the water-heater

resurrecting this old thread :)
I got thrown out of my old mancave, and in to a small corner in the main building (the oldest son, aged 21, needed a place to stay, as his 19 year old sister didn't want to share room with him)
Anyways, I have moved from a 240x60cm desk to a 120x80 desk, and no storage space around me, other than a small office cabinet on wheels. Which means that I have to constrain myself, and find some alternative setups. As I have to work from home these days due to corona, I treated myself with a monitor mount for my 3 screens.
As a bonus, I can now use the space below the monitors for my tools (power supply and soldering iron,and probably the oscilloscope as well, when I get to it). I'm re-arranging stuff every other day, to figure out the best setup, and remove cable clutter (which isn't easy).

@tbowmo is that KDE?
Nope, Ubuntu / gnome, but with a tool bar at the bottom of the screen.

I thought I'd share a part of my 'workshhop'. Only part of it due the rest being in a bit of a mess at the moment, so here is the 'good' bit......

@Yveaux - I don't think it is really worth dying over ;)
@mtiutiu - I guess you are referring to the lack of beer on the bench. Don't worry I will be sorting that out very soon! :)
@dzjr I eat a lot of hot spicy food and you can never be too careful!
Actually the wind speed anemometer is something I 3D printed. The problem is that I need to calibrate it and since I don't have access to a wind tunnel I was thining of securing it to the car and driving at different speeds to note the readings.
Only 2 problems I have found with that so far. 1 - In the UK there are very few calm days. 2 - We have been in lockdown for nearly 2 months and I can't go out to test it.
So it just sits there mocking me for going to all the trouble of creating it in the first place!
