Have you requested LCD4LINUX for tomato/dd wrt before? I have something in my mind that s.b. requested that [;)] Anyway... can you provide links for the sources you want to have compiled?
I can get LCD4Linux to run, but I can't get it to talk to my LCD (I'm starting to wonder if my parallel port is stuffed). The RPM in that post though only has the HD44780 drivers, if someone could compile LCD4Linux with all the drivers that would be awesome for testing.
