Configure ASG Software Appliance with LCD

Hi,

is it possible to use this LCD: http://Alphacool Display with Toshiba T6963 with an Astaro V7 or V8 Software Appliance?

I read that LCD4Linux already installed.

Some interesting links:

Alphacool LCD support in serdisplib, lcd4linux - the hard way | glennji.com

init-6.org - Your current run level: alphacool LCD

Thanks

I found this thread which might help: https://community.sophos.com/products/unified-threat-management/astaroorg/f/52/t/27371

Your going to have to do quite a bit of manual editing to even potentially make it work though and some up2date packages will probably overwrite the customizations. This will also void any support agreement you may have.

Hi,

there are even two .conf files in /etc

lcd.conf
lcd4linux.conf-lcm-162 (this does the actual output)

Cheers!

If you do get it working, post a pic. Would be interesting to see what's shown on a large multi-line display. [:)]
