I'm an idiot! sorry, I never killed the perl program that had been hogging the lcd device. once i did that lcdproc and LCDd both worked fine! and xbmc even sends info to the screen.
the one thing that's still a problem is that the damned thing stays on even when the computer is shutdown. Do you have that same issue? I'd love it if a "poweroff" command could be sent on shutdown... thanks again for all the great patches and packages, matt -- lcdproc needs patch for the imon lcd https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/153185 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
