Hello, This is a patch to update plugin_mpd. It's replace outdate library libmpd with recent library libmpdclient. On http://mpd.wikia.com/wiki/ClientLib:libmpd is library libmpd marked as deprecated. Details about library libmpdclient : http://mpd.wikia.com/wiki/ClientLib:libmpdclient Regards, Andreas |

Hi, Unfortunately it seems that the lcd4linux project is more or less dead. It would be great if someone could get around to reviving it, perhaps you're interested in doing this?

Hi, I don't think the project to be dead. Michael? Are you still around? As far as I can see it is just that lcd4linux basically WORKS. At this time there is room for new features but no new bugs have emerged. Indeed the software is aging and some dependencies might have to be updated. I agree that a new release would be very much appreciated.

Hi guys, LCD4Linux is not dead. As it was said, the project "works". Contributions are still most welcome I think, and Michael can probably confirm this. As far as source code access goes, I think it needs to go through Michael first, but I'm the one eventually setting the access in place for someone, and I'm always available to add someone to the repository access list. Let's not waste time on forking / moving someplace else and do the smart thing of being constructive *for* the project :) /Max * Hans de Goede <hde...@re...> [2011-07-21 13:27:38]: > Hi, > > On 07/21/2011 01:11 PM, Matt Joyce wrote: > > We could always move the code to github and fork it. > > > > Or, better IMHO, first ask the current maintainer, > if he would be ok with someone taking over and then asking > them to make that someone an admin for the sf.net project. > > Note I'm not saying that sf.net is better infra then > github, but it is better IMHO to keep the project at > the same place if possible to avoid user confusion about > which one is the official / latest version. > > Regards, > > Hans > > > > On Thu, Jul 21, 2011 at 05:14, Andreas Brachold > > <an...@us...> wrote: > >> Hi, > >> > >> On 20.07.2011, 19:39 +0200 wrote Hans de Goede: > >> > >>> Unfortunately it seems that the lcd4linux project is more or less > >>> dead.

I posted a patch to this list last September. Nearly a year ago. I didn't hear anything back at all, not even a 'no thank you'. That lack of engagement is quite demotivating. To suggest not to fork is fine (I agree), but if I have to manually add my own patch, technically it has forked. I'm all for simply leaving this project where it is, but for the team to be more responsive, and/or enable others to take action.

Yes, so I'm writing this down for one more vote as someone needs to pick up lcd4linux, merge submitted patches and do a new release, preferably while working together with Michael / the sf.net project, iow without forking. So we need someone to step forward and volunteer to actually do this, and then we should contact Michael about this. So any volunteers? Note I'm explicitly not nominating myself, because of -ENOTIME. Next to my $dayjob I still have a coulple of webcams which need reverse engineering and then writing a Linux driver for them ... Regards, Hans |

I've done enough FOSS work to know that a project like this feels like it is your baby and you don't want to hear that someone saying your baby is dead. I guess this is also a good moment to (re-)explain my interest in lcd4linux. I've reverse engineered and written a libgphoto2 based driver for st2205 based miniature digital photo frames (keychain photoframes). Naturally I encountered the picframe project which has a hack for these devices to use them as external lcd displays. I've given this a try together with lcd4linux. As a result of this I've also ended up packaging lcd4linux (and libst2205 and some other deps) for Fedora.

Using libsensors sounds like a good idea. The i2c_sensors plugin is quite old (it was contributed by Xavier Vello back in 2004). maybe at that time libsensors was not available, or in a bad quality, or... Another question comes to my mind: I always try to keep "embedded systems" in mind. Do you see a problem with libsensors there? OTOH, is there a possible performance penalty when using libsensors? anyway, because of me lacking experience with libsensors, and because of -ENOTIME, any volunteers for a new plugin?

(I'd prefer having a seperate plugin for that, keeping the old one at least for some time) I think doing a libsensors plugin is a good idea and a fun little project, but I'm afraid -ENOTIME applies to me too. But if others are interested I'll gladly help with answering any questions people may have about libsensors. Regards, Hans |
