Re: Is my DHT22 dead? or just my brain?

Sorry this took so long.

sethigh is in this version here(I never updated after I posted the original):
http://www.missliss.org/code/dhtxx-0.9c.tar.gz

It's just a hastily cut and pasted(well copy and deleted) program that can set a pin high or low

... just directly use the python driver from Adafruit, preventing subprocess calls and misinterpretations of the values. I use it myself for reading a dht22 and it works quite well. As i do not have it at hand at the moment i cannot provide a direct link, but you should be able to find it when searching ...

How does it fail? Have you tried running it in a debugger like Adafruit's WebIDE http://learn.adafruit.com/webide

BTW, when you post python you MUST use [code][/code] tags or we lose all of the white space formatting (which is critical for python syntax).

Re: Problem using two devices at GPIO (DHT22,LCD)

Hm, it was a hasty conclusion to say that everything works fine. The readout works better but still fails sometimes. This was only masked by the fact that the loldht-executable tries again immediately if the readout fails. Usually it worked on the second or third approach and the regex-parser then f...

Re: Problem using two devices at GPIO (DHT22,LCD)

I didn't mean to brush you off, just that Adafruit has very good support. Search their forum too. And try the solutions you found here. I'm guessing that library is just not ready for pi time.

I2C and SPI, being more standard, have better support in general.
