Thanks to Michael for the wonderful program. For those of you looking to get
this working on RedHat 7.3, perhaps with a CrystalFontz 632 display, I had to
make a couple of adjustments.
First, the configure process doesn't find the msr.h file, even if I specify a
path to look in so:
cp /usr/i386-glibc21-linux/include/asm/msr.h /usr/include/asm/
then
sed 's/usleep(350000)/sleep(5)/g' Crystalfontz.c >> Crystalfontz.d
rm -f Crystalfontz.c
mv Crystalfontz.d Crystalfontz.c
#Thanks to Herbert Rosmanith for the above fix
./configure
make
make install
cp lcd4linux.conf.sample /etc/lcd4linux.conf
chmod 600 /etc/lcd4linux.conf
chown root:root /etc/lcd4linux.conf
vi /etc/lcd4linux.conf
Add the appropriate lines to the file for you config, per the instructions in
the README.Crystalfontz file
To run the program so that any messages are sent to the screen:
/usr/local/bin/lcd4linux -f /etc/lcd4linux.conf -F -vv
Hope this helps someone. Any questions, feel free to e-mail me at
ju...@di....
