Arduino + Temperature + Linux



With the temperature sensor ready to be tested, I need them to be on all the day and a PC storing the temperature values. My laptop is too lazy, always hibernating as soon as I leave it alone. But what about my Linux server? He is always on, with its low consumption VIA processor and 5 free USB connections. That's my target.
