If you have "OnExit=2" in the [imonlcd] section of LCDd.conf, the LCD will correctly turn off when LCDd is shutdown. (You can test this by running sudo /etc/init.d/LCDd stop and seeing what happens). Something in the linux/ubuntu shutdown process somehow resets the LCD and the backlight comes back on. This may be worthy of a separate ubuntu bug report. -- 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
