[lcd4linux] [Lcd4linux-devel] ANNOUNCE: LCD4Linux-0.10.1-RC2 released!

[Michael R. <re...@eu...>]

Hi there,

Today I released the second release candidate of LCD4Linux-0.10.1

Some nasty bugs have been fixed since RC1, and a compatibility issue
with kernel 2.6.21 has been solved.

Any feedback is welcome!


bye, Michael

You have been bitten by a nasty typo which has been fixed by FoX a few
days ago.

In a few minutes lcd4linux-0.10.1-RC2 will be released, where the bug is
fixed.

[lcd4linux] bars dont progress anymore

[Fabian R. <na...@go...>]

hi!

I just switched to 0.10.1-rc1 and now my old config doesnt work anymore!

it displays a bar which shows my xmms song progress, which worked quite
well in the former version, now it just displays a frames bar but it
doesnt progress! how come?

the part in my lcd4linux.conf is:

Widget zeitbar {
        class 'Bar'
        expression  xmms('uSecPosition')
        length 21
        min 0
        max xmms('uSecTime')
        direction 'E'
        style 'H'
        update tick
}

looks like the one on the wiki :/

greetings

Fabian Richter

Have a look at the output of 'lcd4linux -l' (list drivers). If it doesnt
show a serdisplib driver, it has not been compiled in. In this case you
have to download the source package and compile it yourself.

Re: [lcd4linux] missing 'Display' entry in lcd4tanu.conf!

[Tanuva <ta...@go...>]

Okay, that was it - I found such a line in an entry on the timeline (lcd4l 
wiki), but it was like "Display 'xxx' Layout 'xxx'" where lcd4linux 
complained about the Layout part... Now it already accepts the config file 
but cant find the driver "serdisplib", but it certainly exists in /usr/lib... 
Do I have to put it somewhere else, too?

no, there is none :-)

you got a display section, but no display selection.

just add this line:

Display 'SerdispTanu'

(leave your display section as is!)

The reason is simple: you can have more than one display section, and
you can select one, e.g.

Display a {
   ...
}
Display b {
   ...
}

Display 'a'


Hope this helps, Michael

[lcd4linux] missing 'Display' entry in lcd4tanu.conf!

[Tanuva <ta...@go...>]

Hello!

I was just playing around with lcd4linux - built my configuration file and 
tried to run lcd4l, but I'm getting the following error message:

marcel@marbuntu:~$ lcd4linux -f lcd4tanu.conf -Fvv

Like you can see below, there _is_ a 'Display' entry in my config file, so can 
you tell me what lcd4l expects me to add in the config?

Marcel 'Tanuva' B.
using Kubuntu 6.10 x86 with lcd4linux 0.10.1-CVS

Hmm, thanks for pointing that out. Well, I could use SourceForge's
Download Service, although I don't like to :-)

Sam, any ideas?

Strange, I don't see this warnings. What version of gcc do you use? here
its gcc (GCC) 4.1.2 20061115 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.1-21)

As long as I don't get the warnings, it will be hard to fix'em.

Yes, I don't want to tag RC's, but I will tag 0.10.1. I hope that there
will be no more RC's in the future, but a much more frequent release cycle.

Let me tell you that this photo is quite old, and my collection is about
5 times greater by now :-)

Finally! I just bumped the version in Gentoo[1] and ran into few minor
problems:

1. ChangeLog
As you sure noticed, the ChangeLog shipped with the RC was not current.

2. Filename and URL
There's a problem with you hosting the download files in the wiki:
Besides the download being pretty slow (about 10kb/s), with a wget query
the downloaded file's name will be
"lcd4linux-0.10.1-RC1.tar.gz?format=raw". As renaming does not work with

link as "source link" in the package. I worked around that problem by

Is there a reason you didn't svn-tag the rc? It's always nice to have
the old versions tagged to get the changes at the next release :-)

Anyway, nice work.

[lcd4linux] ANNOUNCE: LCD4Linux-0.10.1-RC1 released!

[Michael R. <re...@eu...>]

Hi there,

Thanks to Martin Hejl (who kicked me in the ass some days ago), I
released the first release candidate of LCD4Linux-0.10.1

Have a look at http://lcd4linux.bulix.org for details, download, and a
(probably incomplete) list of changes.

The 'trunk' was bumped to version 0.10.2, but there will be no
development until 0.10.1 is released.

I'd appreciate any tests and feedback on RC1, so we can release 0.10.1
shortly, and continue work on 0.10.2 (there are plans for scrolling,
finally!)

Note that I got two cool displays recently, but I withstood to develop a
driver for them, but released RC1.

So that's the main reason for releasing that seldom: every time I'm
thinking of releasing something, someone sends me a new and unsupportd
display :-)


Have fun, Michael

The insecure solution: make lcd4linux a set-uid-root program
(   chmod u+s `which lcd4linux`    should do the trick)

The secure solution: write a very small and obviously correct
program that starts and stops lcd4linux depending on the existance
of a file (or better input from a socket). Now let your PHP
script manipulate that file  (or output to the socket).

No, that's not true. Basically LCD4Linux could run as any user. But
there's a security check, it refuses to work if the config file (usually
/etc/lcd4linux.conf) does not belong to the current user, and/or group
or others have access to it.

So if you want to run lcd4linux as 'apache', make shure that
/etc/lcd4linux.conf is owned by apache, too, and that it's permissions
are 0600. Depending on your display, the user apache must have access to
the LCD device, too.

[lcd4linux] start/stop LCD4LINUX from webserver

[Piet v. d. B. <pi...@pi...>]

Hi all.

How can I start stop LCD4LINUX from a PHP script running
on an Apache webserver.
When i use exec() the command is refused because the user is
apache and lcd4linux only allows to run from root user.

Any one that can help ?

If you haven't been able to tell I am new at this. Is there an easy way to 
find out what options I have available, weather it is looking in the code or 
anything like that?

You have to edit the lcd4linux.con and deactivate the picoLCD driver and
activate the CF635 driver.
