Erick,
This is on topic. Please have the replies stay on list. I think it is
beneficial for everyone.
There are a few ways to do this. Manuel has generated a package for
Lcd4linux. I won't be including this in the 0.4 branch, but it's
something that could be added to trunk.
LCDproc which is already in trunk may also work for you. That's
probably why Kristian hasn't included the other package in trunk. I
need to familiarize myself with both packages to see if there is benefit
for one over the other.
