RE: [lcd4linux] Help > Using LCD4Linux on Toshiba Magnia SG-20 In ternet Appliance with RedHat 9.0

Hi Martin,

Your suggestion allowed me to do the configure/compile properly.

Now I need to figure out which driver to use....  Will keep the list posted.
I know there's quite a few people in a Yahoo newsgroup that is very
interested in getting this working as well for the Toshiba Magnia SG-20.

Regards,

-- Simon.

To compile without X and PNG, do (in one line):

./configure --without-x --with-drivers=all,\!PNG,\!PPM,\!X11

see the output of "./configure --help" for all options of configure.

Unfortunately, the above link didn't work for me, so I can't say if one 
of the drivers that come with lcd4linux will work with that display. But 
since it's controlled via the serial port, I'd try with the ones where 
the docs suggest that they're connected to the serial port (one of them 
_may_ work).

I hope that helps.
