Re: [lcd4linux] Automatically start lcd4linux and Ubuntu

[Jan P. <jp...@mg...>]

Hi all,

Thanks for the information, I used the -q option and everything is fine. 
My welcome message is shown until the lcd4linux is booted on the Ubuntu 
platform. At that point, my data is shown as it should, without the 
startup message!!

Thanks
