LCDproc and HD44780 error

ScanEarth

Hi!

I am trying to get an HD44780 based LCD to work with pfsense,
when trying to activate the apropriate driver I just get errors in the system log,
they are as follows:

php: lcdproc: Stopping service: no com port selected
LCDd: Server shutting down on SIGTERM
lcdproc: Stopping service: no com port selected
LCDd: Listening for queries on 127.0.0.1:13666
LCDd: Using Configuration File: /usr/local/etc/LCDd.conf
LCDd: LCDd version 0.5.2 starting
php: /diag_logs.php: [DEBUG] Lock recursion detected.
LCDd: Server shutting down on SIGTERM
php: lcdproc: Restarting service lcdproc
php: lcdproc: The chosen lcdproc driver is not a valid choice

In the server settings tab I have the folowing settings:
Enabled
Paralell port
4 rows 20 columns
hd44780

Please help!
Thank you!

c'est logique.. c'est pas codé (il suffit de regarder le fichier lcdproc.inc)

/* lcdproc default driver definitions */
			switch($lcdproc_config[driver]) {
				case "bayrad":
					$config_text .= "[{$lcdproc_config['driver']}]\n";

Sorry, this problem is old, I've fixed it but arrived with a new problem wich is abit more complicated…
The problem is that pfSense can not control the service proberly since it is basically a php-script run as a service...

I think I will try to use the original client instead, with modified screens

But thanks for trying!
