Hi Micheal.

Now everything works fine, *BUT* the only problems is that I dont know ho to set every differnt widget on a differt key on my keypad !! Is this possible with lcd4linux? Because i create a simple program that read from stdin the hexcode refered to a key f* and everytime kill the process (lcd4linux) and put a new lcd4linux with a differnt conf for each different key. this solution its really bad.

Let me know if its possible to manage this trought lcd4linux.

Hello,
I configured lcd4linux on a testing machine and copied everything onto my machine on which I want to use lcd4linux (it is the same hardware excepting hdd and ram). But somehow it does not work. This is the message lcd4linux delivers:
initializing layout 'info'
widget 'confirm_info': class 'Keypad' not supported
widget 'leave_menu': class 'Keypad' not supported

I would be glad, if someone is able to help me.
Thanks

I don't think this is a LCD4Linux issue, but I am writing it up just in case...

Compiled for Linux 2.6.12 under CRIS for an Etrax LX. No problems there. Set configuration for a Crystalfontz 634:

Display CF634 {

Icons 0 Driver 'Crystalfontz' Model '634' Port '/dev/ttyUSB0' Speed 19200 Contrast 16 Backlight 50

}

// for the layout supplied I removed the last two rows (as my display is 4 rows, // although I suppose these just scroll via the driver).

Layout Default {

Row1 {

Col1 'OS'

} Row2 {

Col1 'CPU' Col10 'RAM'

} Row3 {

Col1 'Busy' Col10 'Rain' Col11 'BusyBar?'

} Row4 {

Col1 'Load' Col11 'LoadBar?'

}

}

Display 'CF634' Layout 'Default'

The display clears (I have another piece of code that writes something to it first) and then the kernel locks. All services die. The console (/dev/ttyS0) locks up. Nada.

I was having this same issue when sending control sequences to the display with my test program (written in C). I found it necessary to pause 100 microseconds or so between commands (not displayable ascii). I also found that many commands are ignored. I have a CD632 which has the same issue.

Now the Axis has a USB-based eth1 port (eth0 is a dedicated controller) and under kernel 2.6.x this has been known in the past to be problematic. I suspect this is a factor, but would welcome any suggestions from the experts before I revert to a 2.4 kernel and try again.

I was playing recently with a DYI LCD panel based on Ampire's AC-204BYILY-H 20x4 LC display, which claims to be HD47780-compatible (full datasheet here: http://home.comet.bg/datasheets/LCD/AC-204B.pdf)

lcd4linux is latest RC2 version. Initially I noticed that no characters appeared on the display. Playing with timings did not help. After some trial and error I found that lcd4linux needs to execute one additional command in order to push the data to the display. In file drv_HD44780.c around line 445 after:

if (UseBusy) udelay(delay);

I added:

drv_generic_parport_control(SIGNAL_RS | SIGNAL_RW | SIGNAL_ENABLE | SIGNAL_ENABLE2 | SIGNAL_ENABLE3 | SIGNAL_ENABLE4 | SIGNAL_BACKLIGHT | SIGNAL_GPO, 0);

I also had to use "UseBusy? 1", otherwise only the first letter appeared on the screen. My LCD panel uses Winamp-style wiring and I have proper "wire" section in lcd4linux.conf. I'm attaching the wiring for reference.

I had this idea for a function that would allow me for example to do a 'ps -aux | grep 'some regular expression' to see if a specific process is running. or maybe "cat /var/log/messages | grep 'some regular expression' to pars a specific message from the log file. Not sure if this could be done but it would be cool. Also it would be nice to have a function like the wlan function but specific to pptp or l2tp connections.

Thanks
